For over 34 years, Health Career Connection has provided students with life-changing, career-launching internships. In addition to a powerful educational experience, HCC interns discover or affirm the health career direction that best suits them, find mentors, secure job offers and increase their competitiveness and connections for graduate health and professions schools.
Spend your summer in an experiential learning internship program designed to develop the next generation of diverse health professionals and leaders.
Through partnerships with leading organizations, HCC provides internships in a variety of settings including but not limited to hospitals, community health centers, medical groups, consulting firms, health plans, local health departments, governmental agencies, community-based organizations, and advocacy groups. We also have new internships in bio-health, biopharma and digital health.
During the internship, students gain valuable real-world exposure, experience and mentorship and complete meaningful projects. Interns also advance their professional skills and personal development through HCC workshops and trainings. HCC provides extensive exposure to health careers and connections to health professionals through workshops and events guiding students towards their authentic health career path. Interns become part of the HCC family of over 5,000 alumni who are health leaders and professionals in health care, public health, mental health, biotech, biopharmaceuticals, and other health sectors and are working to advance health improvement and equity. For those who applied in the past and were not accepted, HCC highly encourages you to apply again as we have new host sites and placements becoming available every year.
HCC interns receive educational stipends that range from $4,200 – $6,000 over the summer. All undergraduate students and recent graduates are eligible to apply. Students already in or who have recently graduated from a graduate program are NOT eligible to apply.
