Worksite Wellness Internship Opportunity
Wellness Works is a Department of Kinesiology outreach program that provides wellness programming support to local worksites through mutually beneficial service learning / internship programming. (See WellnessWorks) Programming is managed by a team of faculty, staff, and Ph.D. students who provide training and supervision of undergraduate students that express interest in these supplemental opportunities. Formalized agreements are established with specific worksites.
