Financial Support

The Lee D. and Donna Stauffer Scholarship is awarded annually by the PHAP faculty to an incoming student who shows high promise of early achievement as a leader in the practice of public health administration. Faculty choose the awardee(s) from the pool of accepted applicants. This scholarship is administered as a graduate research assistantship and no application is required.

Health Tuition Waiver Program

The Health Tuition Waiver Program is awarded by the PHAP faculty to one or two outstanding applicants who have been accepted into the PHAP program. This award reduces tuition by fifty percent for four semesters and one summer session. No application is required.

Graduate Assistant Positions

Research and teaching assistant positions become available throughout the year in the Health Policy and Management Division, the School of Public Health, and other departments throughout the University of Minnesota. Many research assistant positions require knowledge of statistical computing, such as SAS and SPSS programs, and we highly recommend students learn one or both of these programs.

These positions are competitive. Look here for GA postings.
