Internships, Volunteering and Peer Education

Students can work with Health Promotion in any of the following ways to improve their skills and gain valuable experience for personal and professional growth.

Internships
Students can work as an intern within Health Promotion. Previous interns have come with a background in Health Education, Counseling, Public Health, Marketing and Communication. If your major differs from those just mentioned, please contact us. We may be able to use your skills and talents. Most internships are unpaid.

Peer Education
Peer Education is students learning from other students. Peer Health Educators are responsible, enthusiastic, dedicated student leaders who provide workshops, facilitate discussions, and sponsor campus events. Programs can include formal presentations, role-play scenarios, interactive games and informational booths. For more information and a downloadable application form click here.

Class Credit
If you are interested in health and wellness and need free elective credit we can help. We offer class credit for 1, 2, or 3 hours. Assignments will focus around your interests, skills and areas in which you would like to gain knowledge. Please ask your department about independent study opportunities.

Special Projects
Health Promotion has worked with students who have been assigned projects in the following areas, marketing, statistics, design, communication and education. We invite individuals or class groups interested in working with an on-campus organization related to wellness to contact us.

Volunteering
We gladly welcome students interested in volunteering time in the area of health and wellness. Volunteers may be trained in specialty areas to assist with outreach, create written materials, design posters or ads, and/or help us organize special events on campus. This will look good on a resume as well as be a fun, gratifying learning experience.
