One Health Institute Awards | Submit an Application
One Health collaborations across disciplines, faculties and campuses are important steps to resolving and understanding complex problems that exist at the interface of human, animal, and environmental health.
The One Health Institute offers two studentship opportunities for U of G undergraduate students to engage in One Health research:
- Robert W. Woolner Undergraduate Summer Research Studentship in One Health
- International Undergraduate Summer Research Studentship in One Health
To apply for either, U of G faculty members can complete one shared application. Applications will only be considered if the student will engage in One Health research. Priority will be given to early career/pre-tenure researchers, and faculty members who have not previously received an OHI award.
You may submit ONE project for consideration for the undergraduate awards.
To complete the application for the One Health Institute’s undergraduate awards, you will need to provide:
- Your name, affiliation and contact information
- Proposed start date
- Project title
- Project proposal description (1/2 page or 250 words)
- At least one project objective and a description of why a One Health approach is necessary to achieve this objective
- Record of student supervision (max. 200 words): Briefly describe your previous graduate / undergraduate student research supervision
- A short description of the role for the student in this project
Faculty members who are successful in Stage 1 may advertise for a student during Stage 2 (“Selection of Students by Faculty Members successful in Stage 1”).
