Internships
We offer paid summer internships to University of Nottingham law students to work on our diverse projects.
Internships typically run for four to eight weeks to complete a discrete research or project component, providing valued and in-depth experience and exposure to human rights work in practice.
Internships not only provide students who are interested in a career in human rights with a deeper understanding of a particular human rights field, but also improve transferable and practical skills such as team work, research and analytical skills and time-management.
