APHIS’s veterinary services program relies on a wide range of professionals to support its mission. Some key non-veterinarian positions include microbiologists, entomologists and budget and management analysts.
Students selected for the scholarships will receive tuition assistance, employment while in school and job benefits, including paid vacation and sick leave. They may also be eligible for a permanent federal position upon completion of their degree and scholarship program requirements.
