GFEFA Information Session, November 11

The Global Field Experience Financial Award (GFEFA) is a unique scholarship offered by the Rollins School of Public Health. GFE Financial Awards provide supplemental funding to support Rollins student summer field experiences in low- and middle-income countries. The scholarship was started to encourage students interested in global health to participate in supervised field training which will facilitate the transfer of classroom knowledge into practical experiences.

The Office of Career Development will be hosting a GFEFA Information Session on Thursday, November 11, 2021 at 12:00PM EST. Please visit the Events section of the RSPH Career Connection to learn more about the event, as well as access the event link.
