All Autumn 2009 Courses - Details

Externship, Criminal
Course Number: 475-0-01 5-12 Units
The Criminal Standard Externship Program (SEP) allows second and third year students to work for credit in criminal prosecutors' and defenders' offices in the Bay Area for one quarter. Placements can be either full time (40 hours per week) or part-time, but no fewer than 16 hours per week. Because of other Law School requirements, students in their final quarter are limited to part-time externships of no more than 16 hours per week. Students participating in the Criminal SEP are required to enroll concurrently in a designated companion course (still to be determined) during the 2009 autumn term.
For a complete description of the Criminal SEP, students should read the Externship Handbook, which is available from the Levin Center for Public Service and Public Interest Law or online at: http://www.law.stanford.edu/program/centers/pip/externship/. Students wishing to enroll in an externship must meet various requirements that are set out in the Handbook.
Interested students should speak to Danielle Cover, Pro Bono Coordinator.
