Hartford Hospital offers a variety of Internships and Shadowing Programs to students.

  • An Internship is described as an organized, well-defined, experiential program or research project that extends over weeks.

  • Also available are Shadowing Programs, which are short term (hours in length) and are an observational experience.

Below you will find contact information for each of these programs. 

Once you have contacted the sponsoring department and secured an internship/shadowing program, you will need to contact Hartford Hospital's Department of Education in order to complete the clearance process.
