ASPPH is now
accepting applications for the ASPPH Public Health Internship Program for
Summer 2019. This internship program is based at ASPPH headquarters in
Washington, DC and will provide a unique experience where the selected
student(s) can apply their skills and knowledge learned in the classroom
to public health projects of importance to ASPPH and our members. The deadline
to apply is Friday,
January 25, 2019.
“The summer
internship at ASPPH was a great experience for me as it allowed me to see
public health from a non-profit lens,” writes Ms. Razia Momen, former ASPPH
Intern. “The internship gave me the opportunity to meet professionals who
worked in public health education not only at ASPPH but with organizations and
individuals ASPPH works with on a daily basis.”
To be eligible,
candidates must be current graduate students enrolled full-time, with their
first year of graduate school completed by June 2019, in an ASPPH-member, Council on Education for Public
Health (CEPH)-accredited school or program of public health,
with expected graduation in spring 2019, winter 2019, or spring
2020. Applicants must also be U.S. citizens or hold visas permitting
permanent residence (“Green Card”) in the U.S.
Candidates must
be able to relocate to Washington, DC to begin the internship in
late-May or early-June 2019 and stay for a minimum of 10
weeks. Relocation expenses will not be covered.
Applications
must be submitted online via the ASPPH Fellowships and Internships Online Application
System. Detailed application instructions, as well as a
