The Morris Animal Foundation Veterinary Student Scholar (VSS) program is a competitive program that provides veterinary students with the opportunity to become involved in mentored research that advances the health and/or welfare of dogs, cats, horses or wildlife. The VSS program awards stipends up to $5,000 to veterinary students who are selected by their institutions to participate in clinical or basic animal health research.

The VSS program is open to veterinary students attending a school of veterinary medicine recognized by their government and qualifying its graduates to practice within that country.

The program aligns with the Foundation’s commitment to training the next generation of veterinary researchers. These awards are competitive, and each institution is encouraged to select and submit the strongest student project based on scientific merit, potential animal health impact and opportunity for the student scholar to develop veterinary research skills. All proposals must adhere to Morris Animal Foundation’s guidelines and mission.

The Foundation started accepting proposals on January 11, 2022. The deadline for submissions is April 4, 2022, at 4:59 PM ET.

Interested applicants can find additional information and guidelines here. Other questions can be answered by contacting our grants administration team.
