Description
The Labor/Employment Law Externship Program is offered through the Labor and Employment Law Certificate Program. The externship is available to students enrolled in the Labor and Employment Law Certificate Program during their last year of law school and is used to satisfy the experiential learning requirement of the certificate program. The educational objective of the externship is to provide student externs with a well-supervised lawyering experience in labor or employment law by enabling each of them to extern with a law school-approved placement. Student externs are placed with a law firm, corporation, union or governmental agency. Externs spend approximately 15 hours per week during the 14-week semester at their designated placements and attend periodic meetings with the faculty supervisor. Students in the program enroll in a three-credit field-work course graded on a pass/low pass/fail basis and a one-credit graded classroom course (LAW 266).
