Health Coach Internship

During this internship, students work with a chronically ill individual. After the initial patient visit and introduction, students spend 1-2 hours a week alone with their client, establishing rapport and setting and achieving health goals. Students will meet regularly with their internship supervisor, Dr. Carolyn Zanta. The majority of these meetings will be clinical conferences, where students present their clients' health challenges, unique circumstances, and current goals. Students will reflect on and document their internship experience for pass/fail course credit. Successful completion fulfills the experiential learning component requirement for the Public Health major/minor and the Biomedical Sciences major. This course does not count towards Biology Major credit. You must take this course pass/fail.
