EXTERNSHIPS
Embedded Files
An externship is a short-term, real-world learning experience where students can shadow or work alongside professionals in fields like healthcare, law, or business. These experiences typically last from a few days to a few weeks and can be in-person, hybrid, or virtual. While often unpaid, externships offer a valuable opportunity to explore careers, make professional connections, and gain practical insight. They’re a great alternative for students who are unable to fit a Work-Based Learning class in their course schedule but still want a meaningful career experience.
