The Internship Experience in Legal Studies and Paralegal Studies
The Husson University Legal Studies and Paralegal Studies program internships involves both educational and practical work experience that meets the needs of students both academically and professionally as they prepare for graduation and occupational pathways. Interns work closely with practitioners in the Legal and related fields, gaining valuable experience while also earning college credit.

Our goal is to have you placed in an organization with practitioners in the fields who can provide learning experiences and supervision, and where you can contribute.
