Do you seek a part-time role helping to guide undergraduates into health careers?  The Health: Science, Society and Policy (HSSP) program at Brandeis University seeks to hire a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer to manage and oversee the internship experience and teach the associated course for Fall 2024 and Spring 2025.  These undergraduate internships span the spectrum of health functions, including:

• biomedical and health-services research in labs or biopharmaceutical companies;
• clinical support positions in hospitals, clinics, dental offices, physical therapy centers, nursing homes, or ambulance companies;
• public health functions in community health centers or public health agencies;
• health administration, health policy, and consulting jobs;
• health advocacy positions in non-profits and patient groups, including those that focus on how social determinants like hunger, housing, neighborhoods and environment affect health.

Candidates for the position should have familiarity with many of these fields, how they connect to each other, and their role in the delivery of health to patients and populations.  The internship instructor is not required to find internships for students, but the department maintains a database of past assignments if necessary. The instructor is asked to do a quick email or Zoom check-in with each student during the internship, some of which occur over the summer. The position is well-suited for someone established in the healthcare industry who wants to mentor future clinicians, medical personnel, and health advocates.
