Capstone Course Requirement for Public Health Students

All Public Health students are required to complete a capstone course in their final semester. Prior to enrolling in the course, students are required to complete the Public Health Internship Introduction. Public Health Internship Introduction is a self-paced course on Canvas that takes approximately one hour to complete.

The Introduction includes:

  • The internship manual
  • A video from Program Coordinator Dr. Naomi Meier
  • A no-fail quiz to check for understanding
  • A list of internship sites

Upon completion of the internship introduction quiz, students are required to email their advisor to inform them they have submitted the application.
