Campus Safety, Health and Environmental Management Association Scholarship

Since 1977, the Campus Safety, Health and Environmental Management Association (CSHEMA) has sponsored an annual Scholarship Award Program to encourage the study of safety and environmental management and to promote careers in this field. This scholarship is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Fay Thompson. The scholarship is open to undergraduate students preferably enrolled in majors geared toward an Environmental Health & Safety career (such as, but not limited to, Environmental Science, Fire Protection, Health Physics, Industrial Engineering, Industrial Hygiene, Occupational Health, Safety, etc.) who are currently registered as full-time students in an institution of higher education in North America. Applicants must have at least one full year of study remaining in their degree program. The application, essay, and official transcript must be submitted by April 15th using the online form. Any additional, extraneous materials (photos, resumes, research materials, etc.) will not be considered and will be discarded. One scholarship for $3,000 will be awarded to the qualifying applicant who submits the winning essay. The scholarship will be presented or announced at the CSHEMA Annual Conference in July. The winner will receive an invitation to attend the CSHEMA Annual Conference, with the cost of attendance (registration, hotel, and airfare) covered by CSHEMA.
