Domestic Internships
You can tailor a custom law school program by combining doctrinal law classes
with different field experiences. You will apply newly acquired legal knowledge
to real world problems and this experience enriches the classroom experience.
This synthesis of theory and practice builds professional confidence and
competence and supports the transition from law school to professional
employment.
The Internship Program reflects the Law School's commitment to a legal
professionalism grounded in service. The knowledge and skills which students
accumulate both inside and outside the law school benefit individuals,
organizations and government within every field of practice in the broader
society. The Internship experience underscores the inseparability of acquiring
professional excellence to fulfill our responsibility to use this knowledge for the
greater good.
You can intern in a wide range of legal settings including: state and federal
courts; federal, state and local government agencies; non-profit corporations;
legal aid organizations; and private law firms and companies. In these
organizations, lawyers committed to mentoring Suffolk Law students supervise
work done in the field.
