EECP Student Ambassador Scholarship Program

The Environmental Ethics Certificate Program is an interdisciplinary program involving students, faculty, and staff from colleges and departments from across campus. Student representatives, chosen before the Fall semester each year, serve as leaders, ambassadors, and peer mentors for the Environmental Ethics Certificate Program. Students commit to 10 hours per semester and receive group programming/professional development, mentoring and leadership experience, and connection to a small group of like-minded students.

This scholarship program is specific to the Environmental Ethics Certificate Program and separate from College of Environment + Design scholarships.
