This summer internship program gives Binghamton University juniors and seniors the opportunity to:
* Experience the practice of law in the public sector.
* Make informed decisions about the choice of a legal career, based upon their own experience.
* Receive financial support to defray living expenses during the internship.
* Establish professional connections with Harpur Law Council member attorneys and other BU law alumni.
Students chosen for the internship must work full-time at the assigned host organization for eight to ten weeks during the summer. Two or three students are selected each year; they receive a $2500 stipend to offset expenses.
Binghamton's Career Development Center has many resources to help students find internships, including a web site on Finding an Internship. Many pre-law students have taken advantage of the CDC Internship program to explore legal careers and get experience.CDC is located in the Library South, Ground Floor Room 500.
