'Do you know which professors are worth it" Tue Nov 22, 2005 09:59 PM www.ratemyprofessors.com Caveat: Only opinions and should be judged as such. |

American University Washington College of Law is well known for international human rights law. As a student you will have the opportunity to take courses with leading scholars like Paul Williams, a 2005 Nobel Peace Prize nominee for his work in international relations and post-conflict rebuilding, and Professor Robert K. Goldman who was recently appointed by the Secretary-General of the International Commission of Jurists to participate on the Eminent Jurists Panel. The law school also hosts the summer Human Rights Academy, which brings together some of the most respected international scholars. The Academy offers 1-2 credit week-long courses in a variety of human rights topics. Sun Nov 27, 2005 05:47 AM Being in Washington, you will have the opportunity to apply for internships with many of the organizations in the area. I am certain that AU, like Georgetown and GW will offer direct internship with some of these organizations and agencies. |
