Preceptor resources

Thank you for your interest in being a preceptor for our MPH students as they pursue their Applied Practice Experience. We couldn't do this work without you. Your willingness to serve in this capacity is vital in training future public health professionals at UIC.

The Applied Practice Experience is an opportunity for our public health students to take what they learn in the classroom and apply it within the community. It is designed to enrich the student's understanding of public health as well as provide our community partners with assistance in completing projects that benefit your organization and/or community. We are very proud of the work our students have completed as part of this experience.

If you have any questions regarding your role as preceptor or a potential project, please reach out to Michele Rodriguez Taylor, Asst. Director of Internship Programs and Employer Outreach.
