Career Development

The Career Development Office is invested in the success of our students and alumni and strives to provide employment leads and opportunities, career-related skills, training and education to ensure that every student is employed upon graduation.  To facilitate that goal, the CDO will:

• Create and maintain a database of job listings and potential legal employers with information about the employers and contact persons at each employer.
• Develop and maintain robust relationships with law firms, judges and their staffs, in-house counsel, government attorneys and officials, nonprofits, and public interest organizations.
• Work with each student to develop and refine the skills necessary to find employment as a legal professional.
• Provide ongoing counseling to students and alumni on strategies to assist with both short and long-term career goals.
