Matt Winn EHSS Memorial Scholarship

Academic Year Award 2026-2027

Matt Winn was a CSUN Environmental and Occupational Health graduate from the Class of 1995. He worked for a variety of clients, providing Industrial Hygiene expertise across a wide range of industries, ultimately taking a job working for the Amgen Environment Health Safety Sustainability Department. In his career, he solved problems, protected workers, and helped make many workplaces safe and healthy.

Matt was a lover of life. He played violin, coached his son’s baseball team, and loved spending time outdoors. He spent many weekends camping with his family, entertaining them around the fire, singing, and playing guitar.

Matt was a loving husband and father, leaving behind a wife and two sons. He was a kind man who always had a funny story to tell and never had a bad word for anyone. He passed away suddenly in the spring of 2020, leaving us all a little smaller and a little sadder in his absence. Amgen dedicates this scholarship in his remembrance, knowing that he would be happy to help students seeking to educate themselves and improve the world we are all passing through.
