LifeSTEP Internship
The psychology clinic has established a community service agency that provides undergraduate life skills training (and mentoring opportunities) to school-aged youth. The majority of these youth are from underrepresented groups living in poverty in Tucson and are struggling with a variety of psychological concerns (e.g., depression & anxiety).
Each semester we accept applications for our LifeSTEP (Life Skills Training and Enhancement Program), a 3-credit internship (or possible research-related experience for BS majors) where you would meet with your assigned youth once a week for about 4 hours each time.
Newsletters
Each month of the academic year, your Advising team sends out an undergraduate newsletter with important dates and deadlines, reminders, internship and research opportunities, upcoming events, and more! Access current and past undergraduate newsletters.
