Scholars Program

The Age-Friendly Innovation Center Scholar Program is a semester-long experience, designed to provide current undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral students with the opportunity to obtain an understanding of aging, the international age-friendly movement, and practical work experience with multi-disciplinary leaders.

Each Autumn semester, scholars work for Age-Friendly in a variety of capacities, depending on the nature of current priorities and projects. Scholars will have the opportunity to attend Age-Friendly team meetings, program work groups, focus groups, community meetings, and many other events and forums during their employment period. The opportunities will be a mix of educational, experiential and service learning. For more information or to connect about the upcoming application opportunities, email AgeFriendly@osu.edu.
