Law Journals, Internships and Fellowships
Journal of Law, Technology & the Internet (JOLTI)
Founded by students at Case Western Reserve University School of Law, the Journal of Law, Technology & the Internet (JOLTI) publishes two issues per year examining emerging technologies and how they relate to the law. JOLTI welcomes full length submissions from professors and scholars in relevant fields. Case Western Reserve University School of Law students are eligible to join during their second year to contribute in the editing process and submit articles and notes for possible publication.
Internships and Fellowships
Law students can take advantage of several internships with various institutions related to law and technology or law and the arts. For instance, students interested in law and the arts may wish to intern at the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the International Foundation for Art Research in New York City, or the Volunteer Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts in Cleveland. Those students who focus on law and technology can seek an internship at the Cleveland Clinic Tech Transfer Office, Case Tech Transfer Office, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., the Patent & Trademark Office in Arlington, Virginia, or the World Intellectual Property Organization in Geneva, Switzerland.
- Students who have taken intellectual property and corporate law courses can apply for a part-time internship, offered during the school year, by The Cleveland Clinic Foundation. The Innovations Intern works with the CCF Innovations Team and Chief Commercialization Counsel to address intellectual property matters, commercial contracts and startup company transactional issues. The legal intern also works with outside patent counsel. Interested students may apply for this position through the School of Law Career Services Office.
"As an intern at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, I apply the principles from my intllectual property courses every day I go in to work. I've evaluated hundreds of technologies for patentability, worked with outside patent counsel to prepare and file a provisional patent application, and helped draft confidentiality and licensing agreements. The best part is that the researchers I work with are some of the brightest and most innovative in the world. It's been a wonderfully enriching experience."
