Mr. Douville was the Environmental Health Director of Mesa County form 1981 to 1985 and of Boulder County from 1985 until his death in November of 1996. CEHA has established this scholarship for students from Colorado Universities who serve as interns in local health departments. CEHA is looking for students who show strong leadership skills and interest in environmental health. The applicants must be completing or "have completed" an internship with a Colorado health department in the Environmental Health Division within one year of the application. The applicant must be a recent Colorado graduate or a student in a Colorado college or university enrolled in Environmental Health Science or a related field. The applicant must be a member of the Colorado Environmental Health Association.
CSU Scholarship
The CEHA Scholarship Endowment was created in 1986 by a $5,000 gift to the Colorado State University Foundation. A scholarship is awarded annually as funds permit to a CSU student working to gain further expertise in the Environmental Health Profession. Students self-nominate through CSU Scholarship Application. A Scholarship and awards committee selects the successful candidate from the pool of applicants. Selection is based on student's good standing in the Environmental Health program; participation in student, state, or national Environmental Health organizations; and financial need. Applicants must be an undergraduate Junior or Senior, or a graduate student.
State Science Fair
Since 2003, CEHA has awarded one Junior Division and one Senior Division science fair participant with an outstanding science project in the field of Environmental Health Science, exemplifying the objectives of the Association, at the Annual Colorado Science and Engineering Fair. The award, along with a scholarship check for $75, is presented to the outstanding Junior Division winner and a check for $150 is presented to the outstanding Senior Division winner. Also, the Senior Division winner receives an all expenses paid invitation to the Annual Educational Conference to exhibit their project. The Colorado Science and Engineering Fair is held at Colorado State University each April.
CEHA-RIHEL Scholarship
