New York City Program in Finance and Law Endowment Fund

Give students the opportunity to learn firsthand about the high-stakes world of corporate finance through this fund.

Unique among law schools, our semester-long program in the heart of Manhattan enables our students to work with expert attorneys and faculty in a global finance capital.

Participating students gain priceless experience and find finance-related legal positions in New York City at a much higher rate than other students—further expanding our essential (and highly influential) presence and work in the city.

The New York City program draws on the expertise of both our full-time faculty and a group of alumni who are practicing in the finance arena at a high level. The program’s innovative curriculum is built around core practice areas related to corporate finance, capital markets, financial services, regulation and the emerging field of compliance.

In our Manhattan classroom and through site visits to law firms, corporate offices and trading floors – and in one-on-one conversations with high-level professionals in a variety of fields – students get a feel for the realities of practicing in the world of finance.
