Fodham-SKKU Summer Institute in International & Comparative Law


Fordham University School of Law and Sungkyunkwan University College of Law are pleased to co-sponsor the eighth annual Summer Law Institute, a three week academic program in international and comparative law in Seoul, Korea from June 23 - July 7, 2013. 141 U.S. and Canadian students from 25 law schools attended the 2012 program. In its first seven years, the Institute enrolled over 1000 students from 5 countries and 60 law schools, including students from the law schools at American University, Boston College, Boston University, Chicago-Kent, Columbia, Cornell, Duke, George Washington, Hastings, Illinois, Loyola-LA, McGill, NYU, Texas, Tulane, UC-Berkeley, UCLA, USC, and University of San Diego.

COURSES

Students may enroll in three credit hours by taking one of the following courses: International and Comparative Intellectual Property Law, Law of International Institutions, and Comparative Corporate law. These courses will be taught in English by distinguished tenured faculty from Fordham Law School. The program will also offer optional Korean language lessons for those students interested in learning some basic Korean. Students will be able to enroll in three credit hours during the program, and the courses are approved by the ABA for credit toward the J.D. degree.

INTERNSHIPS

After the conclusion of the Summer Institute's academic program, the Institute will place U.S. and Canadian participants who would like to stay in Korea in 5-week internships at the Korean supreme and constitutional courts, Korean government ministries, the Korean National Assembly, multi-national corporations, human rights organizations, and law firms.


FEES/CREDIT

Students may choose to:

1. Receive three ungraded academic credits for internships at a tuition rate of $2,100 (with $500 payable at the time of application)

OR -

2. Receive no academic credit for the internship upon payment of an internship placement fee of $500.

Students opting for academic credits will have priority in internship placements and program housing over non-credit internship applicants.

EVENTS

Program students will also tour the Korean National Court, the Supreme Court, the National Prosecutor's Office and the Foreign Ministry, and attend an extensive selection of extra-curricular tours and social events that enable students to experience Korean cultural life.
