“Is Business Law For Me?”

03:30PM - 04:30PM Washington College of Law

Attention 1Ls: Is OCI on your mind?  Have you been hearing about law firm events, and have you wondered why and where all these events were going?  Come join us for an informal conversation with WCL faculty members with business law expertise.  We’ll preview how OCI (On Campus Interviews, happening this summer) and direct applications to large law firms work.

As we will discuss, OCI will help you jumpstart your career in “Business Law,” which covers all the activities that businesses or corporations might engage in, plus the regulation of those activities.  Think broadly—business lawyers advise corporate clients or regulators on everything from negotiating contracts, to employing staff, to regulating finance, to litigating business disputes, to buying and selling real estate and products in the market.  If you’re interested in business law and want to learn more about what it looks like in practice, this event will be perfect for you.

 Registration is free, but required. Sign-up here!

Careers in Government Series – Kick-Off Panel

12:00PM - 01:00PM Washington College of Law

 

Join Professor Wermiel, OCPD, and a panel of WCL alums from HUD, FDA, and GAO to learn more about legal careers in the government.  This will be the first of our panel series on government careers, and is recommended for any 1L, 2L, or 3L interested in potentially working in government one day or interested in the subject matter any of these agencies work on. 

 
Many of the agencies we will feature have terrific externship, summer, and post-grad programs for our students, but deadlines can be especially early for government jobs!  Some summer and post-grad application deadlines are as early as August!  Join us for a pizza lunch in N102 so you can hear what these alum have to share and start planning ahead for these deadlines over the summer!

 Registration is free, but required.
