Judicial Externships are the fieldwork component for students to work with courts, chambers, administrative law judges, and other judicially-related fieldwork away from the Berkeley Law campus. Students who are proposing full-time away judicial externships are eligible to receive 8-12 units of credit depending on the number of hours they work. Away Judicial Externships track the academic calendar for start and end dates. Students who are proposing full-time judicial externships must receive academic clearance from a JD Academic Advisor in the Office of the Dean of Students the semester before they propose to be away. All field placement applications must be approved by the Field Placement Office. Full-time Judicial Externships: Away students who are not taking any other Berkeley Law classes are eligible to take the Away Field Placement Workshop course component which will begin meeting the first week of the semester. Students are directed to: https://www.law.berkeley.edu/experiential/field-placement-program/how-to-apply/ for additional information.
