All of these offer the potential for valuable learning opportunities outside of the classroom setting. These experiences can serve as a bridge between the traditional academic setting and the profession that our students aspire for. It is our goal at the University of Maine at Presque Isle for  every student to gain at least one of these valuable experiences while they are a student with us.
