What is a Placement Opportunity?
Placements are defined as for-credit practice-based learning opportunities for graduate-level public health students at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health (JHSPH) which are planned, supervised, and evaluated. Placements are coordinated between preceptors in the field (public health professionals located at community-based organizations, local health departments, non-profits, government agencies, etc.) and JHSPH faculty. Placements involve discrete activities that can be completed by students to in order to meet the needs of the participating organizations/agencies. Simultaneously, the placement helps to further enhance the student's own learning as a component of his/her public health education and training. Placements must have realistic expectations and objectives that can be delivered within a specific amount of time (typically corresponding with the length of a course). Placements must meet specific goals and objectives for particular courses within JHSPH. JHSPH faculty members will work with preceptors to determine if particular placement opportunities are appropriate for their specific courses.
