School of Pub Hlth & Hlth Sci 397P - ST-Pro Skills Essentials

This course is designed to accompany an internship experience (remote and/or in-person) and is available to students participating in an internship in the same semester.

The class is intended to expand upon the internship experience through personal reflection, relevant readings, writing, group interactions, subject-matter expert speakers, and site visits.

Open to School of Public Health and Health Science (SPHHS) students. Students must already be enrolled in Internship/Practicum credit in their SPHHS Department.

This course does not satisfy any major or program requirements for SPHHS students.
