Research fellowships:
The center offers year-long research fellow positions. These positions are available to qualified second and third year law students, post-J.D. graduates, and practicing attorneys. For current students the fellowships are available on either an academic credit or stipend basis. Research fellows have two principal responsibilities: writing on California constitutional law topics for publication, and assisting in center programs.
We use a write-on process to allow you to show that you can produce written scholarship. Along with your curriculum vitae, send a description of the work you plan to do and a draft or at least a prospectus of your first project. What length range you publish in is up to you, in this hierarchy: 1K words for op-eds, 3-4K for SCOCAblog posts, 5-10K for online journals, 20-30K for print journals.
