The Center Student Investigator Program

The Center Student Investigator Program (CSI) provides training, outreach, and research opportunities for students to gain knowledge and skills to address Asian American health disparities.  Through their internship experience at CSAAH, students will receive trainings through seminars which aim to provide an understanding of culturally and linguistically appropriate approaches to research, outreach, community partnerships, and care delivery in Asian American populations.   More than 75 high school, college, graduate, and post-graduate health professional students have successfully completed the CSI Program.

Whether they are involved in the Center’s current projects or student-initiated projects, Center Student Investigators will have the opportunity to develop skills such as survey design, data collection and analysis, and asset mapping which they can apply through activities such as community health needs assessments and windshield tours.  They will also have opportunities to network with other health professionals and learn about the various opportunities that one can have in the health field.
