MAS Community Health provides students with valuable insight and hands-on experience. We take pride in the high-quality work that our summer interns produce and pay a competitive hourly rate.
Interns are paired with a mentor for the summer. The mentor will assign tasks and projects to the student. The interns will attend several learning & professional development sessions throughout the summer, including discussions with senior leaders, informative program meetings, plus mock-interview sessions to practice answering behavior-based interview questions. At the end of the internship program, each intern will have the opportunity to present a summary of the work they accomplished throughout the summer.
