Today, CILE hosted our “Go Global with CILE: Pitt Law Study Abroad” information session at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law.

It was wonderful to see so many students interested in exploring opportunities to expand their legal education beyond the classroom and across borders.

During the session, students learned more about international moot court competitions, summer and semester study abroad opportunities, exchange programs with the Sorbonne in Paris and the University of Augsburg in Germany, as well as international internship opportunities with law firms, legal aid organizations, and NGOs.

Programs like these give students the opportunity to broaden their perspectives, gain valuable international experience, and prepare for an increasingly global legal profession.

Thank you to everyone who joined us today!
