[vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]STOHN serves as an internship worksite for the UTSA Internship Program. The goal of the STOHN internship site is to provide learning experiences where concepts and skills gained through academic study can be applied to a work setting. The STOHN internship is completed in-person at the South Texas Research Facility at the Greehey Academic & Research Campus.<\/p>\n

Interns work closely with principal investigators, research coordinators, and study staff. A variety of oral health topics are covered through this program, including but not limited to smokeless tobacco cessation, bruxism, oral ulcerations, xerostomia (dry mouth), and so on. Students will assist in current ongoing studies in the office and participate in engaging community members; participate in weekly meetings, presentations, research papers, and take part in generating study materials as needed.<\/p>\n
