Yale Sports Performance Internship

Job Summary

Yale University Sports Performance is looking for candidates to fulfill internship positions for the  Fall 2020 semester. The internship is a comprehensive experience providing hands on education in the weight room, with a classroom component, including lectures on program design, theory, nutrition, athletic testing, and more.
