The Office of the State's Attorney is accepting applications for Fall 2013 

internships/externships for both law students and undergraduates. 

Applications will be 

accepted until August 9, 2013.  Applications received after that date will not be 

considered.    

In order for the internship experience to be of value for the intern and the Office, interns 

must commit to volunteer for at least 12 hours per week for at least 10 weeks.  

The Office does not offer any paid internships and does not provide parking except at the 

District Court facilities where parking is available for the general public.  A criminal 

background and traffic record check is required for all applicants.  Applications are 

considered in the order in which they are received. 

Law school interns assist prosecuting attorneys with compiling discovery, obtaining 

police reports, doing legal research, listening to jail calls, assisting in court, and drafting 

and filing pleadings but also assist in some administrative tasks. Law school interns will 

be assigned to Circuit Court Divisions and will be located at 120 East Baltimore St.   

Undergraduate interns are assigned to the District Courts or to the Juvenile Division and 

assist primarily with administrative tasks including answering phones, copying, 

deliveries, organizing files, etc. 

Assignments to specific Divisions are made in light of the needs of the specific Divisions.  

Interns will be advised of placement upon on the first day of service. Interns do not 

rotate through Divisions but are assigned to a single Division for the length of their 

service.  Requests for transfers among Divisions will not be granted. 

How to Apply: 

Interested persons should submit a cover letter and resume to 

internresume@stattorney.org. no later than August 9, 2013. In the subject line, please 

indicate "Internship" or "Externship." Cover letters must include dates of 

availability and the specific days and times of the weeks that you intend to 

volunteer.  Without this information, we will be unable to process your 

application.

Stephen comes to INDS with both great respect for the existing program and with enthusiastic vision for growth over the next five years. "I perceive my mission is to sustain and consolidate the many strengths of INDS while finding creative new ways to connect with the broader campus community - and with the world beyond Hilltop Circle". Of particular interest to him are the interface between science and religion ("With its diverse student body spanning so many dimensions of contemporary American society, UMBC has a powerful voice to offer here"), and the ways in which arts, humanities and social sciences can communicate and facilitate research in science and engineering ("It is easy to forget that the very concept of a graph was an early interdisciplinary invention - using art to understand a mathematical relationship was a radical idea. What new opportunities are emerging for us to communicate scientific knowledge - through writing, music and art?")
