Advanced Public Service Externship - LAWB 6304

Credits Hours: 3

This course permits students who have already completed the Public Service Externship course to participate in a second Public Service Externship. The externships must be two different types of placements and in two different semesters. The restriction regarding two different types of placements does not prohibit a student from participating in externships with a trial court and an appellate court in different semesters, nor does it prohibit a student from participating in more than one externship with different nonprofit organizations or state or federal government agencies. A student enrolled in the Advanced Public Service Externship course must complete 115 hours of work at the placement site during the semester that he or she is enrolled in the course and must complete timesheet, evaluation, writing, and mid-semester meeting requirements. This course does not require a training session or a seminar class. Students receive three hours of graded academic credit upon satisfactory completion of the course.
