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 Mallory Underwood, Director of the Career Center, who also serves as the judicial clerkship advisor in the Career Center. Contact her at munderwood@campbell.edu or 919-865-4689.
