Experiential Learning/Internships

Access to impactful experiential learning opportunities is one of the cornerstones of the College of Health’s mission. Through partnerships within and beyond the university, students can pursue a rich set of experiences in health. For instance: 

• Health technology/entrepreneurship: Ben Franklin Technology Partners, an incubator on Lehigh’s campus for tech-based start-ups.
• Community and global health: Pennsylvania Department of Health’s Office of Health Equity, which addresses health disparities and public health issues.
• Data analytics: IQVIA, a multinational leader serving industries in health information technology and clinical research.
• Social enterprise: The Global Good Fund, an organization founded by Lehigh alumna Carrie Rich providing leadership development for social entrepreneurs, including those in the healthcare sector.

All students majoring in the College have the opportunity to apply for a paid internship, a funded experiential learning project and/or study abroad experience. We encourage students to seek paid internships but also want to make unpaid internship experiences, common in the nonprofit sector, accessible to COH students. Go HERE and enter "COH" into the search engine to find out more and to apply!

Experiential Learning/Study Abroad

The College of Health works closely with Lehigh's Office of International Affairs to connect students with international experiences, whether that be through traditional semester abroad programs, international internships, or global opportunities on Lehigh's campus.

For students interested in finding out more about study abroad opportunities, please go HERE to make an appointment with Katy Rene, assistant director of Study Abroad.
