Career and Professional Development Center

1L/2L/3L Students

JD Students

The Career Center team is committed to "getting to know" every Duke Law Student with the goal of offering individualized attention to each student. Starting with participation in Admitted Students events, followed by 1L Orientation and involvement in all facets of student life, the Career Center team is a fixture of the student experience at Duke. While meetings with a counselor are not "mandatory" at Duke, typically 75 percent or more of 1Ls meet with a counselor during their first few months of school. For some students, one meeting is all they want or need; others meet with a counselor almost weekly throughout their time at Duke. To set up an appointment, come by the Career Center (Room 2015) or email the Career Center Coordinator at careercenter@law.duke.edu.
