each year
The Texas Law and Business Program (the “LAB Program”) serves to bridge the gap between law and business for our students, and our Fellows will play an intricate role in furthering the Program’s mission of creating lawyers who are business-minded and ready to enter the world of transactional law.
The LAB Program anticipates awarding 8 to 12 scholarships to deserving students each year. Each Fellow will receive $1,000 per semester for the 2025 – 2026 academic year. 1Ls and rising 2Ls are eligible to apply.
Expectations
We expect our Fellows to spend time each week on program matters over the course of the year. Additionally, Fellows are expected to:
- promote the LAB Program and the Law School’s mission to expand opportunities in the corporate world for our graduates;
- provide new ideas for LAB Program curriculum and events;
- collaborate with the LAB Program’s partners on and off campus,
- network with alumni; and
- provide mentorship to undergraduate students.
Additionally, LAB Program Fellows that are rising 2Ls or 3Ls are expected to take the required number of credit hours of courses listed under Curriculum throughout their remaining two academic years.
Activities
Mini-Mester: It is currently anticipated that each year, Fellows will have the opportunity to spend time in New York, London or another major financial city shadowing practitioners to further their education and gain real-world experience.
More to come!
