Internships

The MS in HSRP&A research and policy concentration (Plan B) has opportunities for a paid  internship.

Students are placed at organizations in the community where they receive "hands on" experience in health services research, are mentored, and have opportunities to contribute to projects within the sponsoring organization.

Students apply skills learned from the program to their internship. Many students use their internship experience as the foundation for their Master's thesis.
