In addition to internship placements in Istanbul, we may be able to place selected students in Dubai at a prestigious U.S. law firm with an international practice. We also have a new exciting opportunity for an internship in Kuwait with one of the leading law firms in the Gulf region.

Summer 2011 Student Evaluation: Overall Experience 4.3

(Scale of 1-5, 1=poor, 5=excellent)

"This summer was fantastic, and my internship in Dubai was unforgettable." Anonymous, Golden Gate University School of Law (2011)

"The [Istanbul] program was extremely well run, the classes and lecturers were outstanding, and the Koç University Campus was an excellent setting. * * * [Koç University has] more amenities than most American campuses, including an outdoor swimming pool, where we would gather many evenings with Turkish students who became our friends * * * Istanbul is a great city to explore even if you're a single woman traveling alone. Public transportation is safe, cheap, and easy to use. The food is excellent. The people are the friendliest and most helpful I've ever met, many speak English extremely well. I say, give it a try, you'll be glad you did."
