Community Health and Research Assistant Internship

 

Location: Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland (at MLK and 52nd
Street. Able to bike from campus)

 

Position Title: Community Health and Research Assistant

 

Compensation: Unpaid internship

 

Hours: 8-16 hours per week; flexible times and days including some work from
home if desirable. Flexible starting time. 

 

Description: This position will be responsible for two activities:

 

1) Helping to design and write the hospital's Community Benefits Report.
This report includes a needs assessment with health statistics and a
description of the various hospital service programs. This is an opportunity
to co-author a meaningful report. 

 

2) Researching and summarizing government and private grant opportunities
across a spectrum of health-related areas, including different areas of
medicine, specialty programs, research areas, and community and public
health, and assisting with grant proposals. This position will work with a
seasoned grant writer and program developer and will learn all about the
grants process, from finding a grant opportunity to submission. An onsite
workstation is available. 

 

 

Eligibility:  You should be at least a college junior (grad students
welcomed), reliable, possess above average writing skills, and have at least
a 3.30 GPA. MS Word and MS Excel fluency is very desirable, but you don't
need to be an expert.  

Two references and a writing sample will be required. Individuals with an
interest in a career in public health, research, public policy, medicine, or
government will find this job to be a unique way to learn all about
hospitals, public health, and grants, and will lead to something tangible.
Though unpaid, the experience will be very beneficial when applying for grad
schools or jobs after college.
