High School Internship, Summer 2025
The Birnbaum Women’s Leadership Center (BWLC) at NYU School of Law is accepting applications for summer internships from rising high school juniors and seniors.
The internship will run for the month of July with a time commitment of approximately 10-15 hours per week (some flexibility is permitted). The role is remote with opportunities to join occasional on-campus meetings and events.
Projects will include:
- Researching a gender equity/justice issue and drafting a 700-word op-ed (with an eye toward publication in Ms. Magazine);
- Working with BWLC staff to manage the Center’s web site and social media accounts. This will involve identifying articles to share, creating graphics and captions, and boosting followers on key accounts (X, Instagram, LinkedIn);
- Researching and proposing events that the BWLC might host in the 2025-26 academic year. These could include a book talk, as well as proposals for panel discussions. You will have the opportunity to “pitch” these events to the BWLC leadership team; and
- Providing administrative and editing support for the BWLC staff.
Applications will be considered on a rolling basis until May 31, 2025. To apply, please submit the following materials to womensleadership@nyu.edu with the subject line “BWLC High School Internship Application.”
