Below is a list of former field experience sites and their contact information. Previous students have had positive learning experiences with these organizations. This is an abbreviated list and students should not be limited to these sites exclusively. Sites that have an asterisk (*) are sites where undergraduates have performed internships, but the organization is interested in discussing possibilities with graduate-level students as well.
After reviewing this document, a number of students have requested additional details on crafting learning objectives, which are a component of the field experience application. In terms of learning objectives, the School of Community Health's internship advisers recommend using active verbs that are stated in a way that includes the specifics of the student's project, as in the examples below:
Apply theory in the development, implementation, and evaluation of X.
Develop interventions and programs to effect X change.
Design and implement strategies to promote X.
Solicit and integrate input from community and organization stakeholders.
Design and deliver health communication messages to do X.
Evaluate and interpret results from X program.
