Dear Colleague,
Do you know a student who might be interested in learning more about occupational health -- a student currently in the public health, nursing or medicine track or an energetic and curious student interested in economic and social disparities or environmental issues?
We need your help to recruit these students to apply for the NIOSH-funded Occupational Health Internship Program (OHIP). This is the 10th year of our very successful summer program that is designed as a field-based learning experience in occupational safety and health. Students work with labor unions or community-based organizations on a variety of issues of major importance to workers and the occupational safety and health professionals.
Students can apply to work in any of the following cities, regardless of where they now reside: Berkeley/Oakland, Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle, Chicago, Boston and New York City. Supervision and mentorship is provided by senior occupational health researchers from UC Berkeley, UCLA, San Diego State University, CUNY, UMass Lowell, University of Maryland, University of Washington, and the California Department of Public Health.
The deadline to apply is March 18, 2013.
The program is open both to undergraduates (3rd and 4th year) and graduate students (public health, medical, nursing, etc) with an interest in occupational health or related fields. A stipend is provided for the 9-week experience ($4,000 for undergraduates, $5,200 for graduates (no housing allowance but we can assist those relocating for the summer to find temporary housing.)
More information about the program, and how to apply, can be obtained at the OHIP website at www.aoec.org/ohip<http://www.aoec.org/ohip>.
Please contact me ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>), Administrative Program Coordinator Ingrid Denis or the National Program Coordinator Sarah Jacobs ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>) if you have any questions.

OHIP Program Director
