Internships

General

CHRGJ offers part-time (Fall, Spring and Summer) and full-time (Summer) unpaid internships. We welcome applications from both NYU and non-NYU undergraduate and graduate students from a wide range of disciplines. The Center may also additionally seek interns to work on specific projects for specified time periods.

Interns generally provide both administrative support and undertake substantive work on key projects and research areas of the Center. The particular work undertaken by an intern will depend both on Center need and intern expertise.

Internships are advertised on the Center’s website and distributed through relevant listserves at NYU and other academic institutions. The Center also accepts unsolicited internship applications that contain a statement of interest and curriculum vitae. These applications should be sent to: Veerle Opgenhaffen, Program Director, CHRGJ at opgenhaffen@juris.law.nyu.edu

Due to the large volume of internship applications received, the Center will only reply to successful applicants.
