5/24/2020
My name is Andrew Hua and I serve as the Case Manager and Outreach Specialist at the University of California San Diego (UCSD). We have a very exciting internship/graduate assistantship opportunity for graduate students interested in Case Management Services.
For several years, UCSD Student Affairs Case Management Services have been working with the UCSD colleges, schools, and divisions to create a culture of care for our undergraduate, graduate, and professional students. However, for the first time this academic year, we are excited to provide an educational and enriching field experience for graduate students who may have an interest in working in a non-clinical role in a higher education setting.
Working with UCSD Student Affairs Case Management Services, graduate students will gain a fulfilling experience where one may provide guidance and facilitation to assist students in optimizing their educational experience while minimizing the impact of illness, injury, behavioral changes, and personal distress on students’ academic careers through the coordination of care, interventions, and social support with appropriate referrals, and follow up services within a broad network of campus and community resources. Although students in these positions develop and use clinical knowledge in their one-on-one and group interactions with undergraduate and graduate students, they do not provide direct clinical services. In addition to providing case management support, graduate student interns will have the opportunity to engage in program development, providing presentations and trainings, and working with diverse populations of students.
Our institution’s academic calendar is structured on the quarter system, however we are flexible with graduate students who are participating in a semester-structured academic program. In addition, we would like to share that we are flexible with creating a remote internship/graduate assistantship experience. Furthermore, our internship/graduate assistantship is a paid 16-hours/week program.
