This program provides you with the chance to test theory with practice, combining internship experience with a classroom seminar.
All placements are with nonprofit and government agencies.
There are two programs, each linked to a separate seminar. In both, you'll gain invaluable, hands-on experience outside the classroom. In the Legal Aid Internship, you will work with criminal defense lawyers at the offices of the Legal Aid Society. You will attend one of two seminars that include readings, lectures, and discussions on issues related to your placement. You'll analyze common problems and experiences in a small seminar setting.
