Positions are paid, starting at $15/hr.

Applications for all positions are competitive, so students should apply as soon as possible. All position descriptions, application forms, and instructions are available at https://ccf.fiu.edu/summer-programs/index.html.

Students who have participated in the program have uniformly viewed the experience as an extremely demanding one, but one that makes a great contribution to their professional development. With very few exceptions, they highly recommend working in the program. For example, on feedback forms administered at the end of recent programs, approximately ninety percent of undergraduates felt that the experience contributed very much to their career goals, and that they would recommend the program to other undergraduates. The experience and recommendations gained in our program have helped many of our undergraduates continue in graduate careers in the helping professions. 

The experience is also quite useful for undergraduate students interested in clinical research in child psychopathology, pharmacology, and psychotherapy.

This year we have funding to support up to 6 paid, full-time summer research positions for undergraduate (junior or senior standing), graduate students in psychology and related fields, and medical students. During our 10-week Service to Science Scholars Research Program students will gain real-world experience conducting cutting-edge Veteran-focused research at a major VA medical facility. Our nationally and internationally recognized award-winning VA faculty are studying a range of questions relevant to Veteran populations, from PTSD, suicide risk and prevention, traumatic brain injury, cognitive aging, severe mental illness, addiction, sensor technologies/mHealth assessments, clinical trials, to risk and resilience. In addition to hands-on research experience, the program includes faculty-led weekly seminars on research professional development, mentoring (grad students only), statistics, and other relevant research methodologies and topics. All students present a flash talk at the Annual Service to Science Scholars Research Program Symposium, and many past participants have elected to present their projects at national and international scientific conferences. 

Given the overall goals of this research experience is to diversify the VA’s future scientist workforce, we will be giving preference to applicants who are US Veterans, and strongly encourage students who are current US service members, a dependent of a current US service member/US Veteran, or who are from backgrounds historically underrepresented in sciences (e.g., students from minoritized, low-income, differently abled, first-generation college students, and other backgrounds), to apply.

    If you are committed to collaborative problem solving, creating high-quality and user-centric products, and want to make waves in women's healthcare, join us!

    About Us
    Founded in 2017 by Carolyn Witte and Felicity Yost, Tia is the modern medical home for women. We are trailblazing a new paradigm for women’s healthcare that treats women as whole people vs. parts or life stages. Blending in-person and virtual care services, Tia’s “Whole Woman, Whole Life” care model fuses gynecology, primary care, mental health and evidence-based wellness services to treat women comprehensively. By making women’s health higher quality and lower cost, Tia makes women healthier, providers happier, and the business of care delivery stronger — setting a new standard of care for women everywhere.

    Tia has raised more than $132 Million in venture capital funding to date, including a recent $100 Million Series B investment, one of the largest early-stage rounds ever for a healthcare company focused on women. Tia has ambitious plans to scale its “whole-woman, whole-life” model to more than 100,000 women by 2023. We’ll do this by growing virtual and in-person operations in existing and new markets while expanding its service lines to care for women throughout their entire lives -- from puberty to menopause. Since launching in 2017, Tia has grown to serve thousands of women aged 18-80 with blended in-person and virtual care in New York City, Los Angeles, Phoenix and soon San Francisco.

    We’re building a world class team to reimagine women’s healthcare. We’re an interdisciplinary team of clinicians, researchers, designers, technologists and operators who have seen firsthand how broken the healthcare system is for women. We’re united by a powerful mission to enable every woman to achieve optimal health, as defined by herself, as well as a shared set of values and principles that define our business, products, and culture.

    Tia is building a culture of excellence — in people, process and product. This is our northstar value ;

    What is excellence, exactly?

    Excellence about constantly elevating yourself, it is the process of constantly striving to perform to the best of your abilities, and identifying your top potential through constant learning, experimentation and evolution. Excellence is not about achieving perfection, as that insinuates a pinnacle. Instead, in our terms, excellence is about the pursuit of constant improvement. We’re looking for people who want to go on that hard journey of constantly setting new personal records, and organizational records.

    We practice excellence at Tia by demonstrating the following types of behaviors: We chose (and actively choose) excellence as Tia’s highest order value because it crystalizes into one word several behaviors that we hold dear, specifically:

  • A drive to constantly improve through experimentation, reflection, and an insatiable growth mindset -- said another way, we're energized by the possibility of invention, innovation, and iteration
  • Being present in and grateful for the journey -- not just the goal line. (Perfection is static. Excellence is a process on this important distinction below)
  • Asking why, then why again -- because accepting "this is just the way it is" is not good enough
  • Grit & perseverance -- a maker mentality that involves "rolling up your sleeves", but also deep care for oneself and for others
  • A commitment to uncovering talents to unlock "rock star" potential across every individual

    Benefits (Clinic)

  • Free Tia Membership: Enjoy complimentary access to Tia's premium services.
  • Comprehensive Health Coverage: Full-time employees receive medical, dental, and vision benefits; along with access to additional support for infertility services.
  • Insurance Package: Gain coverage with life, AD&D, STD, and LTD insurance, and explore voluntary options for Critical Illness, Accident Insurance, and Life Coverage for you and your family.
  • Financial Flexibility: Take advantage of Health Spending Account, Flexible Spending Account, and Dependent Care Spending Account options.
  • Emotional Well-being Support: Access Ginger + (Headspace+) for Emotional Health Coaching and 8 Virtual Therapy Sessions for both you and eligible dependents aged 13 and above.
  • Retirement Planning: Participate in our 401K program (no matching currently) to secure your financial future.
  • Team Bonding Opportunities: Enjoy a travel stipend for team off-sites, complementing our commuter benefits program.
  • Time Off Flexibility: Tia's comprehensive benefits extend to our Paid Time Off (PTO) program, providing employees with paid time off for vacations, personal needs, or as supplemental sick time.
  • Tech Excellence: Depending on your role, access top-tier technology, including a 13" MacBook Pro, iPad, or other Apple devices.
  • Professional Development Support: In addition to our existing benefits, Tia values the growth of our medical care providers and offers a Continuing Education Reimbursement Program.

    Furthermore, excellence reflects the “bigness” and the “boldness” of Tia’s mission and vision — a world in which every woman can achieve optimal health, as defined by herself.

    Said another way, Tia’s mission is NOT to make healthcare incrementally better for women. Instead, we’ve intentionally set out to create a fundamentally new paradigm for modern women’s healthcare that’s truly excellent . We believe that creating a company that operates in a culture of excellence will manifest in our product. Reaching this goal is not an overnight pursuit or a “one and done.” We have not and will not “get it right” with the first swing. Rather, this higher order goal is a moving target — one we have not and will not ever fully “achieve.” By design, we will never be “done” with this work, but instead, we will be continuously in pursuit of our mission. It is this continuous pursuit — the journey, not the finish line — that truly embodies excellence.
