What is an Extern?

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

During our 2020 Extern Program, 32 organizations hosted 56 externs.

“This externship was truly life changing for me. It answered a lot of questions about life after graduation that I didn’t even know I had.” -
