EXT 588 - Grad Externship


An externship is a form of experiential learning in which knowledge gained in classes is applied to an authentic, real-world setting. With guidance from a faculty sponsor, each student sets learning goals and works with a site supervisor to create a mutually beneficial experience. During the semester, externs reflect upon their learning experience through journaling. An externship also provides opportunity for personal and professional growth, and increased understanding of a career field from the insider perspective.
