For Students
The Human Rights Institute is the focal point for human rights education at Columbia Law School. During the academic year, the Institute runs an active speakers’ program and cooperates closely with student groups on other program activities. In addition, through the affiliated Human Rights Clinic, students gain hands-on experience working on active cases and projects with Columbia Law School faculty and leading human rights organizations in the United States and abroad.
On this site, you will find information about research opportunities, human rights curriculum and faculty, student groups, and other human rights resources.
