Internship Process

The main aim of internships is to provide a smooth transition from the academic world to the real work environment. An increasing number of law schools require the completion of an internship as a prerequisite to graduation. As the legal field has become more complex and legal employment opportunities have multiplied exponentially, the definition of a ‘traditional internship’ has evolved greatly. The Placement Cell facilitates several different types of internship opportunities such as:

• Judicial clerkships
• Legal clinics
• Summer clerkships
• Pro bono Projects
• Law firm Internships
• Corporate Houses

These programs places students in law offices, courts and public interest organizations with the goal of providing real-world legal experience under the guidance of faculty members, licensed attorneys and sitting judges.
