Get Involved with an Internship
Internships give you the opportunity to come in contact with criminal justice organizations that work in the broader field of criminal justice-related policy and practice.
A practice-focused, intellectual experience. Students often debate issues such as police legitimacy, victims’ rights, mass incarceration, fairness in sentencing, and reintegration of formerly incarcerated individuals, as well as a wide variety of other topics.
