Areas to Support
Sidebar
The School of Public Health and Information Sciences strives to become a nationally recognized center of excellence for the creation, sharing and application of knowledge for the public’s health. In doing so, the SPHIS endeavors to lead local, national and global efforts to solve some of this century’s greatest health and environmental challenges.
The University of Louisville is a critical resource for improving economic development, helping understand urban issues and so much more. The city draws on the energy of the university and conversely, we reciprocate by supporting and engaging the city.
We humbly ask for your consideration of a gift to support our students, faculty and school. Your gift supports our collective power to create healthier and more just communities. Your gift today supports the Louisville community, our region, nation and world by building future public health leaders.

Areas to Support
This fund provides general support to SPHIS, which includes, but not limited to: general operations, student activities and programs, faculty development and deferred maintenance. You may designate your gift to the Fund for SPHIS, which is used where the school’s needs are greatest.
This financial need/merit-based scholarship was established through a generous gift from founding dean and his wife, Dr. & Mrs. Richard Clover.
This fund provides scholarships for students in the Health Management and Systems Science (HMSS) department. HMSS students learn to develop, disseminate and apply evidence-based knowledge about health policymaking, systems design and quality healthcare delivery.
This scholarship was established by SPHIS alumni to provide support for students. The fund has been made into a permanent endowment. Contributions will allow the corpus of the funds to grow and gifts will live in perpetuity.
The accelerated degree program allows a student to complete the Bachelor of Arts in Public Health (BA) and the Master of Public Health (MPH) over a five-year period. The Master of Public Health (MPH) degree program is designed to provide students with training in foundational MPH competencies as well as a specific area of concentration. MPH graduates are prepared for positions in the public health work force, health‐related industries, academic organizations or for further professional or academic education. We hope to assist this group of bright minds to ensure they are able to graduate and begin impactful careers in public health.
This fund helps defray some partial expenses of attending academic conferences but isn't nearly enough to make it affordable for all to attend. Students present papers, poster presentations, network with established public health professionals, and participate in a learning environment that ensures success in a competitive and changing public health landscape. Our goal is to provide at least $1000 to 25 students each year. This will allow students to incur minimal out of pocket expenses for conference travel and for a significant increase in students participating in national conferences and academic competitions. With your help, our students and researchers will be recognized thought leaders solving the emerging and difficult issues impacting population health.
The Woodson Lectureship Endowment was established to introduce national and international speakers to SPHIS and its partners. We are pleased to welcome public health leaders who work in various sectors to present in person and virtually to the school's faculty, staff, students, alumni and partners.
