INTERNSHIP ALERT: The American Public Health Association (APHA) will be accepting applications for their fall cohort until June 5th! Both undergraduate and graduate students are eligible for unpaid APHA internships that offer practical work experience.
The internships are performed in-person (Washington, D.C.). This is a U.S.-based internship and candidates must be able to work in the U.S. during the internship. To assure that the intern maximizes his/her experience, we prefer to have students commit a minimum of 20 hours a week for a minimum of 8 weeks, and for those students visiting for a semester, full-time, if possible.
