Practical Experience
Getting students practice-ready, prior to graduation
At Chicago-Kent we pride ourselves on the numerous opportunities we offer students to receive practical skills training before they graduate. Many of our students choose to work within one of our unique clinics, housed within the C-K Law Group, an actual law firm staffed not simply by academics, but by practicing attorneys, some of whom allow first-year students to work on a wide range of cases or other legal matters alongside them. Others take advantage of our deep connections within the Chicago legal community to extern with one of the numerous governmental agencies, law firms, corporations, and advocacy organizations located just blocks away from our campus. And for those that want courtroom experience, our trial advocacy and moot court teams are consistently ranked among the best in the nation.
