Faculty Externships

Faculty Externships give business partners opportunities to provide input and encourage continuing collaboration with McCoy College faculty. Employers have a firsthand opportunity to discuss the skills and competencies needed by graduates. Faculty Externships are typically one-day to one-week programs. We invite organizations to host as many faculty members as they wish.
