Milton Stewart Fellows Summer Internships: A Global Understanding of the Practice of Law
A critical mission of the Center on the Global Legal Profession is to enhance students’ understanding of how law is practiced across cultures. In 2010 the CGLP embarked on a first-of-its-kind summer internship program in India, placing six interns in positions at law firms and NGOs. In 2011 the program expanded to include two placements in Brazil and nine placements in India. In 2012 internships in India and Brazil will continue to be offered, and internship opportunities in China and South Korea will be added to the program.
1L and 2L students interested in the 2012 Milton Stewart Fellows Summer Internship Project are invited to apply starting now and running through December 19, 2011. A limited number of positions are available in India, Brazil, China, and South Korea. Applications are available through Symplicity; select the “jobs and scholarships” tab and search for “2012 Summer Internship Abroad” or job number 4968. Application requires submission of a resume and completed application form, which includes a brief personal statement.
Applicants may apply to more than one program using the same application form and should be sure to explain their interest in being a Stewart Fellow and preparation for taking part in these programs in the personal statement. Selected applicants will be invited to first-round interviews in late January/early February 2012.
