Visiting Student Intern Program
The Centre for Health Behaviours Research frequently accepts student interns year-round to work with our team for 1-6 months. Our strong collaborations with local and international partners have allowed our interns to obtain a truly hands-on research experience. Our interns have gained experience in each step of research including but not limited to literature reviews, grant submissions, fieldwork, data analysis, and journal submissions. Some of our past interns have also had the opportunity to work directly with local NGOs such as AIDS Concern and travel to Mainland China to observe different public health settings such as Shenzhen Center for Chronic Diseases and the Shanghai Health Education Institute for further learning.
Past interns include post-graduate students from Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, Emory University Rollins School of Public Health, University of Southampton, Bangor University, and University of Birmingham.
