Emory Law prepares students for legal careers in public service. Our innovative curriculum includes traditional courses in public interest law as well as a range of topics from international human rights to homelessness. We offer experiences beyond the classroom through clinical programs, our extensive externship program, numerous opportunities for students to engage in pro bono work, practice societies, and networking with faculty and alumni who work in the field.
EPIC
The student-led Emory Public Interest Committee (EPIC) promotes public interest law, facilitates the employment of Emory students in public interest legal positions, and works to make legal services more accessible to those who do not have adequate representation.
Pro Bono Service
Emory Law encourages students to fulfill the legal profession's obligation to undertake pro bono work on behalf of indigent and underrepresented groups. We offer pro bono opportunities with a wide range of legal services organizations, across many practice areas. All students, regardless of their professional goals, are encouraged to take part in pro bono work during their time at Emory Law. Emory also offers recognition programs for students who undertake significant pro bono work during law school.
