International Law Programs E-Newsletter & Archive

The YLS International Programs Newsletter contains information about campus events, grants and fellowships, miscellaneous opportunities, and additional resources. It aims to help students navigate events and opportunities relating to international, transnational, foreign, and comparative law. From reminders of deadlines for abstract submissions to the American Society of International Law to pointing out resources for searching international career opportunities, the newsletter is the product of great devotion and effort. All YLS students receive the weekly newsletter via email each Monday during the semester. In addition, YLS events can be found on the online calendar.

For all its qualities, the newsletter does not and cannot encapsulate all of the international opportunities that bloom in the hallways of YLS. Stay appraised of opportunities by taking classes with an international focus, joining student groups, and attending extracurricular events and conferences. The myriad of centers and programs at YLS are always bringing in outside scholars and professionals interested in recruiting YLS students.
