Externship: TYA II

Catalog description

The Third Year Anywhere program allows law students to perform fieldwork at placements inside and outside of Kansas for academic credit during their final one or two semesters. Students who participate in this program will reside and gain practical legal experience in the local market where the student seeks to practice after graduation from law school, thereby increasing the students' practice-readiness. (Placements are subject to limitations based on student safety and educational integrity). Student Externs will work under the direct supervision of a local Field Placement Supervising Attorney ("Supervising Attorney"), with oversight from the Faculty Supervisor who is a faculty member at Washburn Law. Students may earn up to two credits of skills instruction per semester through this externship placement. Prerequisite(s): Must enroll in Law Practice Competencies II. Credit/No Credit.
