Health Security PhD Opportunities

In a world of rapid innovation in the biological sciences, the emergence of new diseases, and changing environmental pressures, health security risks to the global community are a rising concern. The field of health security has a growing need for trained expertise that can provide science-based solutions and inform global policies to shape preparedness and response efforts.

Selected students will receive full funding to complete their PhDs in the Health Security track within the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health’s Department of Environmental Health and Engineering. Applicants must indicate their interest within their SOPHAS doctoral program applications, which are due on December 1, 2022. More information and application details can be found here.

These funding opportunities are supported by Open Philanthropy and are intended for students with an interest in the field of health security, particularly in pandemics and GCBRs.
