Metro Nashville Public Health Department
The public health experience at the Metro Public Health Department (MPHD) is designed to provide meaningful, real world public health experiences for both undergraduate and graduate level students. We seek to provide opportunities for students in a variety of health related disciplines including Public Health, Environmental Health, Nursing, Medicine and Business. We also offer volunteer experiences for people wishing to assist with special projects within our health department. Interns are students from accredited educational institutions who need public health experiences to fulfill specific curriculum requirements for graduation.
Our ultimate goals for all internship experiences are for student interns to have an opportunity to expand on their interests and academic training and receive additional hands-on preparation from MPHD professionals. Student interns have the opportunity to work side-by-side with public health personnel and have the opportunity to provide meaningful input into new and ongoing MPHD projects. This hands-on approach allows interns to become more experienced with methods, processes and practices used by public health organizations.
