Internship

Apply for placement

Are you a college student looking for an internship and a better understanding of what we do in public health?  We offer experiences for both in-state and out-of-state students. Assisting the Department of Health (TDH) in understanding what you want to learn helps us identify the best opportunity available. If we find that your interests and our needs align, we will contact you to discuss placement. Please note all applicants must be at least 18 years old and high school graduates or equivalent at the time of placement.

The application for Spring 2026 is open September 1, 2025, and will close midnight on September 30, 2025.

*NOTE: Starting Fall 2025, we will offer paid and unpaid internships. PDF versions of paid project descriptions are available below and inside the application.

Please email us at AHD.Health@tn.gov with questions.
