Law Careers: Events and Opportunities in Trinity Term
Exploring a career in law can feel like a big step, whether you have a clear destination in mind or are just beginning to look around.
This term, we have put together a series of events and opportunities specifically designed to support Oxford University students. So, whether you are studying law or something completely different, we are here to help you get ahead in your legal career thinking.
In-person law careers appointments in the Law Faculty
In Hilary term and Trinity term, the Careers Service will be offering in-person careers appointments in the Law Faculty on Tuesday mornings to undergraduate and postgraduate students at the University of Oxford.
The appointments will take place in Seminar Room L (next to the cafe) in the Law Faculty, St Cross Building, OX1 3UL between 10.00 am and 12.00 pm on Tuesdays during weeks 1-8 inclusive.
You will be able to book a ‘Law Careers Appointment (at St Cross Building)’ via CareerConnect a week in advance.
Appointments will be with either Callum Buchanan, Julia Sadler or Niamh Walsh (the law specialist careers advisers). All three careers advisers also offer online appointments on MS Teams most days in term time and in the vacations – you might find an online appointment suits you or your schedule better. We also offer some in-person appointments at the Careers Service at 56 Banbury Road.

Introduction to Law
Thursday 7 May, 12:00 - 13:00 Online
If you have been considering a career in law but are not sure where to start then this event is for you. The legal sector is large and full of variety so for this session the main focus will be on understanding the roles of a barrister and a solicitor, how to become qualified and how to get started. This session is for beginners, so it will assume no prior knowledge. There will be opportunities to ask questions.
Internships
As an Oxford University student, you have access to a range of opportunities from the Internship Office. In Trinity term, applications open for The Summer Internship Programme, The Micro-Internship Programme, and The Crankstart Internship Programme which advertise opportunities in a variety of sectors, including in law.
