Description
Students in the Public Health Internship class will complete a 150-hour practical work experience at a public health related site/agency under the supervision of preceptor and an NCWU MPH program faculty member. The internship course is designed to provide MPH students with the opportunity to integrate the knowledge and skills developed during their academic program in a structured, supervised, real-world professional setting in a public health related field, under the direction of a site supervisor. As part of this course, students will produce a minimum of two work products that align with the needs of the internship site and meet the educational and/or professional goals of the student. Work products must demonstrate integration of at least five MPH program core competencies, three of which must be foundational MPH core competencies, and two of which can be foundational or concentration-specific core compentencies.
