Internship Opportunities           top

Rehabilitation Internships
These are six to nine month practica which are offered in connection with formal academic programs in vocational rehabilitation or allied fields. Participants are generally masters or doctoral level students who are nearing the end of their academic studies and wish to have an experience in applied rehabilitation practice. Rehabilitation Internships are frequently used to satisfy the practicum or internship requirements of a student's academic program. They may be used to satisfy requirements of supervision by certified rehabilitation counselors in the course of a student's training. Rehabilitation Internships are negotiated on an individual basis with interested students. Graduate level credits at the University of Washington may be earned via participation in vocational rehabilitation internships in our internship programs.

Post Doctoral Internships
Persons seeking Post Doctoral Internships are generally graduates of psychology programs who are interested in developing specific expertise in the area of vocational rehabilitation, and who are interested in satisfying licensure requirements. Dr. Fraser offers individual supervision for each of these goals. A general internship is offered, although prospective interns are encouraged to identify and pursue individual areas of interest (e.g., applied neuropsychology, research, specific population foci). Graduate level credits at the University of Washington may be earned via participation in vocational rehabilitation internships in our programs.
