For a complete list of Individual Student Community and Court Projects, including full descriptions and faculty who will be teaching the offerings in 2008-2009, refer to the online Curriculum Guide. Enrollment in these courses is by application and permission of the instructor. For more information, please visit the Externship Web site.
Students interested in experiential learning have a range of opportunities to combine intensive seminar exploration of substantive and practice topics with fieldwork experience. These externship offerings introduce students to areas of practice and applied legal policy, enhance understanding of substantive law and develop skills that help to prepare students for law practice. Students registering for these offerings are expected to devote more than 15 hours per week to the externship including seminar and/or meeting times, time at the field placement office and other project assignments. Students must pay careful attention to the scheduling arrangements required by the different projects to ensure that they have the requisite hours available at the placement. For example, federal court externships require that students spend at least a day at the court house. Applications for these courses may be separate from and prior to the standard pre-registration procedure. Notices about them usually are distributed by e-mail.
