While at the William S. Richardson School of Law and the Environmental Law Program, students have the opportunity to gain experience through externships, pro bono projects, and summer jobs. Graduates of the law school are trained to successfully pursue a wide variety of exciting careers in environmental law. They are employed by federal and state agencies, federal and state judiciaries, private law firms, public interest law firms, and non-profit organizations.

Everett Ohta, Class of 2009 and Ashley Obrey, Class of 2009 "Earthjustice provides an unparalleled summer experience for students interested in protecting Hawai`i's natural resources and environment. As a law office devoted exclusively to public interest environmental litigation, summer law clerks are exposed to a wide range of state and federal laws that relate to environmental issues at the forefront of local concern. Summer work also covers a wide range of tasks, from drafting court documents for established cases to assisting in case investigations for cases that have yet to be developed. Although work takes place in a casual office environment, Earthjustice litigates cases that improve the way that individuals, entities, and even laws, function in our islands."
