Clinics & Externships
Centers & Pro Bono Opportunities Our three law centers let you apply your classroom learning to real-world situations in diverse and growing areas of the law: business law, social responsibility, and international law and policy. Starting as early as your first year, you will have opportunities to join professors and classmates on projects that will hone your skills, strengthen your résumé, and provide a foundation for your career after graduation. As a law student, you can participate in center projects as early as your first year, gaining invaluable exposure to real-world legal work and practical experience in research, writing, client advocacy, and more.
Center Projects
Clinical law courses allow you to get hands-on experience in real-world legal settings, putting your classroom learning into practice. You will develop critical lawyering skills and represent real clients while receiving academic credit.
