Community & Population Health Intern – Multiple Locations/Campuses

Under the supervision of their preceptor, through various hands-on and experiential opportunities, interns perform various admin and research-based projects to support the department and to learn, observe, and become familiar with the work being done in the Division of Community and Population Health’s community health programs and ambulatory health centers. Responsibilities may include assisting with workflow processes, making recommendations for improvements, gathering, evaluating, and analyzing data from multiple sources, preparing reports, and supporting administrative duties, as needed.

In addition to project-based work, interns take part in team huddles and strategic meetings, gaining insight into how NewYork-Presbyterian addresses the social determinants of health through community education, collaboration with community stakeholders, and preventive resources. Interns will also have access to centralized resources, including database tools and mentorship programs, to support their projects and learning. Additionally, interns will participate in workshops, seminars, and training sessions designed to strengthen skills in research methods, data analysis, communication, presentation, and project management. Interns may also be required to travel to various locations.
