DPH880 Public Health & Health Education Internship
The purpose of this course is to provide all students with an applied, scholarly, and mutually beneficial experience in a public health practice setting that utilizes their knowledge, skills, and use of theoretical frameworks in public health. This experience augments the academic coursework, meets community needs, and provides students with an opportunity to integrate and apply public health competencies. Students are expected to demonstrate mastery of public health principles, values, and practice. All partner organizations must be approved by Aspen University. Applied practice experiences may involve governmental, non-governmental, non-profit, industrial, and for-profit settings or appropriate university-affiliated settings. To be appropriate for applied practice experience activities, university-affiliated settings must be primarily focused on community engagement, typically with external partners. This course will include 120 hours of internship experience and the student will complete Chapter 5 of the project manuscript.
