Description

Satisfies Experiential Learning requirement.

This program provides students who have already completed a legal externship with the opportunity to participate in another approved externship at a government agency or non-profit legal organization. Students complete assignments, such as creating a professional development plan and written reflections, required by the Director of Externships, but do not enroll again in the academic component that they have already completed.

Students work either 12, 16, or 20 hours per week (for 3, 4, or 5 units) in a placement that must be approved by the Director of Externships.

Fieldwork units count against the 20-unit cap for "non-classroom" work.
