LAW 6903 - Law & Technology Externship

Institution:

University of Dayton

Subject:

Law

Description:

An externship is a semester-long placement with a court, a governmental office or agency, a public interest organization, or a business, where students will perform the tasks of an attorney. Students will be assigned externships that relate to the curricular track that they have chosen. The Externships available to students in the Intellectual Property, Cyberlaw and Creativity Concentration are designed to allow students to participate in a law firm or corporate law department working on intellectual property matters assigned to their supervising attorney. Students will begin their externships by participating in a workshop on professionalism and professional responsibility. Then, they will spend an average of 16 hours per week working. They will be under the supervision of a licensed attorney at the site of their externship, and they will also report to an externship supervisor at the School of Law. Depending on the externship assigned, students may also be required to participate in a weekly colloquium to analyze their experiences. This experience will not include any in-court appearances, so students will not need a limited license to participate. Credit Type B.
