American Academy of Periodontology Foundation Educator Scholarships

Description

The American Academy of Periodontology Foundation Educator Scholarships were created to stimulate the development of periodontal educators by providing financial relief to students intending to pursue a career as full-time teachers at U.S. periodontal programs upon graduation from U.S. periodontal postdoctoral training programs. The scholarship may be awarded for three years. The Educator Scholar must commit to spending one year as a full-time periodontal educator at a U.S. program for each year they receive the award. If the recipient fails to meet the teaching requirement, the award is considered a loan and must be repaid. Applicants must have been accepted into, or must be current students in, a periodontal postdoctoral training program in the United States. Applicants are welcome to apply in any year of their periodontal programs. Finalists for the scholarship will be asked to attend a mandatory personal interview with the selection committee during the AAP Annual Meeting. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Academy of Periodontology Foundation for more information.
