CSTEP Internship Program at SUNY Optometry

Applications are currently open for two opportunities to learn more about the profession of optometry at SUNY Optometry, located in midtown Manhattan. SUNY Optometry's CSTEP Internship Program is designed to support New York state residents who identify as members of a historically underrepresented group or who come from an economically disadvantaged background.

The Spring Internship program runs from June 4 - June 14, 2019. This is an exploratory program, designed to let students shadow in clinics, visit private practices, go through professional school readiness workshops, network with students and faculty, and do a research presentation.

The Summer Academic Program meets every Tuesday between June 4 and July 30, 2019. In this academic program, students will get a chance to take introductory optometry curriculum courses with SUNY Optometry faculty, for 2 elective credits.  They also get a chance to shadow one day in the clinic.
