PUBLIC INTEREST INFORMATION

The Office of Career Planning and Professionalism at Penn Law actively offers assistance to students seeking summer and permanent public interest and government employment at graduation. Our integrated approach to public interest counseling within the Career Planning office also allows us to strategize with students and alumni about their long-term public service goals.
