A judicial clerkship is one of the most valuable experiences a Campbell Law School graduate can pursue following graduation. Judicial clerks have the benefit of an on-the-job education that also serves as a stepping-stone into the legal market. It can be a significant asset to your legal career, regardless of which specialty or position you pursue. Moreover, a judicial clerkship is a valuable life experience in itself—one that offers a unique opportunity to look behind the scenes of a courtroom into the practical workings of a judge’s chambers.
Students interested in clerkships should speak with Assistant Dean of Career and Professional Development Mallory Underwood, who also serves as the judicial clerkship advisor in the Career Center. Contact her at munderwood@campbell.edu or 919-865-4689.
