Dear Graduate Nurse Student:
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) announces the opening
of the solicitation period for the 2008
OSHA Graduate Nurse Internship.
If you are a registered nurse interested in working at OSHA’s National Office in
Washington, DC on current occupational safety and health issues, please consider
this unique opportunity. Historically, a stipend has been provided to candidates
selected for this program at the hourly rate for a GS 11, step1 staff position.
This experience is open to all registered professional nurses pursuing a
graduate degree in occupational health or related fields. Each intern is
given a project specifically designed to fully use their knowledge, skills and
abilities. These projects blend current OSHA issues and initiatives with
the theoretical bases of your academic study into a practical occupational
safety and health experience at the national level.
Enclosed are several
Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQs) concerning the OSHA Graduate Nurse Internship. If after reading the
FAQs you have
further questions, feel free to contact Robert Nester, PhD, in the Office
of Occupational Health Nursing (202-693-2120).
We are delighted to offer you this educational partnership. We encourage you to
consider the value of the OSHA
Graduate Nurse Internship as part of your professional development.
Applications are now being accepted.
Sincerely,
Ruth McCully
Director
Directorate of Science, Technology, and Medicine
