LAW-957 Summer Global Externship Program

Each year, Suffolk Law School in cooperation with the Center for International Legal Studies (CILS), Salzburg, Austria, offers students externship placements at private law firms in more than 90 countries as part of its Summer Global Externship Program (SGE). Suffolk students have externed at local and international firms-from Argentina to Belgium to Hong Kong-often tackling the most cutting edge legal issues that lawyers are facing in transnational settings. For example, one student externing in Latin America carried out a comparative law review of various countries' internet privacy laws and presented his findings to the client corporation-all the while gaining rich cross-cultural experiences through his daily work.
