What is a sleep internship?

A Sleep Internship is a role where participants test sleep-related products, environments, or studies by sleeping under specific conditions. Interns may be required to evaluate mattresses, track sleep patterns, or contribute to sleep research. The goal is to provide insights on sleep quality, comfort, and overall restfulness. This role is ideal for individuals who enjoy sleeping and are interested in improving sleep science.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the sleep internship position, and why are they important?

To thrive in a Sleep Internship, you should possess keen observational skills, an openness to participate in controlled sleep studies, and strong attention to protocols, often backed by enrollment in a relevant academic field such as psychology, biology, or health sciences. Familiarity with tools like polysomnography equipment, sleep tracking software, and data entry systems is valuable. Professionalism, reliability, clear communication, and the ability to follow detailed instructions help interns stand out. These skills and qualities ensure reliable participation in research studies and contribute valuable, accurate data to sleep science teams.

What can I expect during a typical day as a sleep intern?

During a Sleep Internship, your typical day will involve participating in or assisting with sleep studies, which may include monitoring sleep environments, collecting and recording data, and sometimes spending nights at the research facility. You will work closely with research staff and follow detailed protocols to ensure the study’s accuracy and participant safety. While much of the work is scheduled around specific study sessions, you may also assist with equipment setup, data entry, and administrative support tasks. This immersive experience provides valuable exposure to sleep research and helps you build foundational skills for future roles in healthcare or clinical research.

Applicants pending the completion of training or license requirements may be referred and tentatively selected but may not be hired until all requirements are met. Currently employed physician(s) in VA who met the requirements for appointment under the previous qualification standard at the time of their initial appointment are deemed to have met the basic requirements of the occupation.
Basic Requirements:
  • United States Citizenship: Non-citizens may only be appointed when it is not possible to recruit qualified citizens in accordance with VA Policy.
  • Degree of doctor of medicine or an equivalent degree resulting from a course of education in allopathic medicine or osteopathic medicine. The degree must have been obtained from one of the schools approved by the Department of Veterans Affairs for the year in which the course of study was completed.
  • Current, full and unrestricted license to practice medicine or surgery in a State, Territory, or Commonwealth of the United States, or in the District of Columbia.
  • Residency Training: Physicians must have completed residency training, approved by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs in an accredited core specialty training program leading to eligibility for board certification. (NOTE: VA physicians involved in academic training programs may be required to be board certified for faculty status.) Approved residencies are:
    • (1) Those approved by the accrediting bodies for graduate medical education, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) or American Osteopathic Association (AOA), in the list published for the year the residency, or fellowship if applicable, was completed; OR

    • (3) Non-US residency training programs followed by a minimum of three years of verified independent practice in the United States (performing under a full and unrestricted license) performing duties related to the position they are applying for (United States fellowships would be creditable towards this requirement), which the local Medical Staff Executive Committee deems to have provided the applicant with appropriate professional training and believes has exposed the Physician to an appropriate range of patient care experiences.

Additionally, surgery residents in gap years may also be appointed as PRPs.
      • In rare and unusual circumstances, the Facility Director can submit a memo to the VISN Director through the VISN Chief Medical Officer, who may approve requests for reasonable exceptions to the residency training requirement for Physicians whose composite record of experience, accomplishments, performance, and qualifications warrant such action.
  • Proficiency in spoken and written English.
