Away Field Placements are the fieldwork component for students who do legal work under the supervision of an attorney for non-profits and government agencies that are not located near the law school. Students may do full-time Away Field Placements after their third semester of law school. Students considering 10-12 unit placements must be approved by the Office of Student Services and the Field Placement Program. In addition, students must have their placements approved by the Field Placement Program Director before they are eligible to receive academic credit. The Away Field Placement Workshop is the 1-unit class component for students doing Away Field Placements. Students are directed to: https://www.law.berkeley.edu/experiential/field-placement-program/how-to-apply/ for additional information. Students are required to schedule an advising appointment at sschechter.youcanbook.me if they are considering an Away Field Placement.
