DESCRIPTION

The Human Rights Internship Scholarship is awarded to undergraduate or graduate students pursuing any major at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Human Rights minors are encouraged to apply. Students are also strongly encouraged to assess their financial aid package prior to applying for the scholarship to ensure this award will not jeopardize their financial aid.

Students may apply for a level of funding corresponding to the total number of hours they will work during the internship. For example, a 10-week summer internship at 40 hours/week would be equivalent to 400 hours. The maximum amount a student may apply for is:

- $1400: 100-149 total hours
- $2600: 150-299 total hours
- $4000: 300 or more total hours

Students may apply for less than the maxinum amount. Please indicate the amount you are applying for in your application.
