ILS Student Ambassador Program The International Law Society is pleased to announce that we have launched a new Student Ambassador program to welcome international LLM-K and LLM students to Northwestern Law. ILS will host and organize a series of cultural and entertainment events throughout the year to encourage students from the JD and LLM programs to get to know one another better. Please email Darcy A. Horak if you are a JD student interested in participating! |
| Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court CompetitionThe competition, named in honor of Judge Philip C. Jessup of the International Court of Justice, was founded in 1959 by a group of international law students who sought to promote international legal education. It is an international law advocacy competition in which oral and written pleadings would be presented on timely issues of international law and argued as if before the International Court of Justice in the Hague, Netherlands. The American Society of International Law and the International Law Students Association are co-sponsors of the international competition. Participants compete in regional and national competitions in their respective countries. In the U.S., twelve regional rounds are held in which the winner of each region advances to the national competition. The winners of each national competition compete in the World Championship Round, which is held in Washington, D.C. Please be aware that students who participate in this program cannot participate in an ITP trip. |
International Arbitration Competition Professor Steve Smith leads a team of NU students each spring to compete in the annual Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot in Vienna, Austria. To be eligible, you must take Professor Smith’s classes in International Sales and International Arbitration in the fall. Please be aware that students who participate in this program cannot participate in an ITP trip the same year.
