San Antonio Internship/Practicum Opportunities for San Antonio Regional Campus Students

Students, welcome to your local San Antonio Internship/Practicum Database. As you know, MPH students are required to have a planned, supervised and evaluated practice experience as part of their academic program. The practicum experience should be directly relevant to the student’s educational objectives and career goals.

In an effort to create an index of local internship opportunities, we spoke to several local organizations and asked them to let us know if they could use the services of our School of Public Health Students. By clicking on the San Antonio Internship/Practicum Database link, you can find the various organizations that have responded thus far. As we get updates from these and/or other organizations, we will notify all current students via email and post it on our San Antonio Internship/Practicum Database link. Click on the following link to learn more about the MPH Culminating Experience.

UTHSCSA has also created a Community Service Learning (CSL) Directory which may lead you to other great local practica opportunities.  Please click the following link for a detailed listing of what is currently available.  UTHSCSA Community Service Learning Directory 

UTHSCSA also allows you the opportunity to join a CSL Listserv for updates on UTHSCSA CSL activities and opportunities.  If you are interested in joining the listserv, please click on the following link. Join the CSL Listserv for updates on CSL activities and opportunities

For additional information on these opportunities, please contact Melanie Stone, CSL Coordinator at stonem@uthscsa.edu, 210-567-0523. 

We would like this to be a combined effort, so if you find a great internship opportunity, please contact Rosie Chavez at (210) 562-5504 so that we may investigate the possibility of offering a similar opportunity with the same organization, to future students.

For a list of national and international internship opportunities go to the Office of Public Health Practice. For additional information please contact Brenda Brown at (713) 500-9160.

PLEASE NOTE - It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that their practicum is properly documented in their academic record by ensuring that a copy of the completed Learning Contract is placed in their file prior to graduation.
