ECIC Practicum Program

The ECIC Practicum Program matches community-based and state-level organizations with MPH students to work on injury-related projects. The program is designed to provide students with hands-on public health and injury-related experience and assist organizations with limited funds and capacity in completing much-needed projects. The ECIC will post positions, interview candidates, check references and place a student within an injury prevention organization for a 10-week practicum period. There are up to 4 paid practicum positions for Fall 2011 semester; students will work from October to December 2011.
