Students considering a career in public international law are invited to a special Careers’ Panel event on Tuesday 28 March organised by Kent Law School’s Centre for Critical International Law (CeCIL).
Leading lawyers from the world of international law will talk informally about their careers and offer advice about internships and job applications before answering questions from the floor.
Panel members comprise:
- Iain Bryne: Head of Refugee and Migrants Team (acting), Amnesty International
- Elizabeth Howe OBE: President International Legal Assistance Consortium
- Professor Nick Grief: academic at Kent Law School and practising barrister, Doughty Street Chambers
- Clare Hamilton: Deputy Head, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
- Jayne Instone: Employability and Career Development Officer, Kent Law School
The evening will begin at 6pm in Keynes Lecture Theatre 5 (KLT5) and will be followed by a drinks reception from 7.30pm to 8pm, providing an opportunity for networking and informal discussion.
The event is open to undergraduate students, postgraduate taught and research students and all those interested in exploring a career in international law.
CeCIL is an innovative research centre which aims to foster critical approaches to the field of international law, and other areas of law that touch upon global legal problems. It offers a regular annual programme of activities for Kent Law students including an annual lecture (which this year is being delivered by Professor Vasuki Nesiah on Thursday 23 March.) The Centre also organises workshops designed to engage scholars based at other institutions, and strives to engage students, scholars and practitioners interested in the critical study of international law around the world through developing collaborations and joint research efforts.
