Summer Public Service Program

Texas Law is committed to making it possible for every student to gain valuable professional experience while providing the community with much-needed legal services. The Summer Public Service Program (SPSP) supports students working in unpaid or low-paying summer positions with nonprofit organizations, government agencies, legislative offices, and courts.

Through SPSP, students receive funding to pursue meaningful summer public service work while building the skills, relationships, and experience that will shape their legal careers. The program includes both general and named fellowships made possible through the generosity of alumni, law firms, foundations, and friends of Texas Law.
