Our interns do concrete work in support of our litigation, including substantive writing and research, and collaborate with NRDC Litigation attorneys.  The internship typically lasts about 10 weeks, beginning at the start of the intern’s fall semester and ending before exams. Start and end dates and other scheduling details are negotiable, but we look for a minimum time commitment of two days (14 hours) a week over the course of an academic term.This posting will be open until April 15, 2024.
