Public Interest Opportunity of the Week – Deborah T. Poritz Summer Public Interest Legal Fellowship


The Deborah T. Poritz Summer Public Interest Legal Fellowship program awards summer internships to rising 1L and 2L law students at New Jersey public interest legal organizations. Applications will be considered and hiring decisions will be made on a continuing basis from November 15, 2013 until all positions are filled (usually by mid-April). Interested students are encouraged to apply as early as possible. The program particularly seeks people who have demonstrated their commitment to helping the disadvantaged through their prior work, extracurricular activities during school and volunteer efforts, and give evidence of strong commitment to a public interest career.

Application forms are available in the Career Development Office. Students can stop by in person or email lawcareer@uh.edu for an application form.
