INTERNSHIP AND PRACTICUM
An internship is an experience within a healthcare facility that earns college credit and has either paid or unpaid hours. The academic institution determines the number of hours necessary per credit.
Practicum is a specialized experience within a healthcare facility that is designed to give students supervised practical application of studies through clinical field placement. UP AHEC can provide resources for students to be successful with their rotation in a rural, medically underserved setting.
