W74 LAW 668JNew York Regulatory and Business ExternshipVar. Units (max = 12.0)
Description:Enrollment limited. Open to 3L and 2L J.D. students. Student and instructor collaborate during the semester preceding the student's placement in making office selection and applying to individual offices for a position. In this externship, students work with legal offices in New York City learning first-hand about the practice of business associations and regulation in the nation's largest city. The externship allows students to work under the direction of attorneys in a variety of nonprofit, government, and in-house counsel offices having an emphasis on business associations and regulation. Examples of potential placements include positions with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), New York Attorney General's Office, and in-house counsel office for large businesses. These externships expose students to nonprofit and business associations, as well as regulatory environments, and help students gain a level of experiential training and learning that will allow a more rapid transition to practice. Pre-requisite: successful completion of all first year courses. [Note: Students are prohibited from taking more than one clinic/externship/supervised practicum in the same semester. Students who are not in good standing (for either academic or disciplinary reasons) the semester prior to taking this course and the semester of this course, are not eligible to participate in this externship. The clinics/externships have a different drop deadline than other Law School courses. A student will not be allowed to drop any law clinic or externship without good cause and the instructor's permission. This course is graded on a credit/no credit basis. 8 units remote; 12 units on-site.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
