JD Prof. Development Cred/CPT Internship

1 credits · Law School

The professional development credits will be structured around first year professional development programs plus summer employment or internships (paid or unpaid) involving law practice or law-related work under the supervision of a licensed atty. If a student's summer experience is not suitable for earning this credit, students will work with career counselors and academic advising to develop and document professional development in qualifying courses during the 2L or 3L year. Students will receive a CR/NC credit notation on their transcripts, which indicates satisfaction of the graduation requirement of Rule 2-1 (4) but does not count toward the academic credit required for graduation. With approval from the Law School Administration (specifically the Associate Dean for International Studies), law students may register for a one-credit internship in a legal setting.
