Internship and Field Placement Opportunities
Internships and field placements are invaluable components of any MPH program, providing students with practical experiences that bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world public health practice. Lamar University’s MPH program recognizes the importance of hands-on training and offers a range of internship and field placement opportunities.
Partnerships with Organizations
Lamar University has established partnerships with various organizations and agencies in the public health sector to provide students with diverse and meaningful internship opportunities. These partnerships ensure that students are exposed to a wide range of public health settings, such as local health departments, non-profit organizations, research institutions, and healthcare facilities.
Through these partnerships, students have the opportunity to work alongside experienced public health professionals, gaining practical skills and insights into the day-to-day operations of public health organizations. Internships may involve conducting research, assisting with program evaluation, participating in community outreach initiatives, or analyzing health data.
