What is an Extern?

An extern is an Ursinus student who spends three to five days at the workplace of an alum or friend of the College to gain practical exposure to a potential career field.

“This externship was an incredible opportunity that I would not
have been able to get if it wasn’t for Ursinus. I learned a lot and
met a lot of great people that helped to confirm my aspirations
to work in the medical field / healthcare. ” -
