LAW 918 Advanced Field Placement Clinic (2-3 credits)


Prerequisite(s): A student must (1) have completed 30 credit hours for placements which do not require a student license to practice or 60 credit hours for placements which do require a student license to practice; and (2) have completed Professional Responsibility or be contemporaneously enrolled in Professional Responsibility. Certain placements have specific GPA or coursework requirements beyond these prerequisites
Chase’s clinical externship program offers students practical, hands-on experience in handling actual cases and learning aspects of the law in supervised judicial, civil, and criminal law settings. A student must expect to work 50 hours for every credit-hour earned. First-time placements of 3 credits or less qualify for the field placement clinic. Second or subsequent externships of 3 credits or less qualify for the advanced field placement clinic. All externships of 4 or more credits will be enrolled in the semester in practice course. These externships have a mandatory classroom component, even though these are listed under “non-classroom courses.”  The class sessions will not meet every week, and some sessions will be conducted on-line.  See Professor Kinsley for details.
