University of California Irvine School of Law Externships offer law students the opportunity to practice their skills in a real work environment. Externs provide legal services to the community and gain experience at the same time in the field of law.

Law students interested in working as an extern may choose positions within judges' courts, non-profit organizations, and government agencies. The externship program is designed to include both on-site work opportunities and classroom teachings in various areas of the law. In addition to valuable experience gained by working with other experienced professionals, students will receive academic credit for an externship.

Students must plan ahead for externships, which are usually offered during the summer session, by signing up early for the courses required in order to apply for an externship. They must complete the prerequisite courses and work the required number of hours at their externship in order to receive college credit.
