The Georges Fellowship for Conservation
Through a grant from the Georges Foundation, Shedd Aquarium offers a one-of-a- kind
summer internship for a first-year law student who is enrolled in an Illinois law
school and is interested in environmental law. The Georges Fellowship for
Conservation includes an eight-week internship with Shedd's Conservation Department
focusing on environmental policy research. It includes mentoring by a practicing
environmental law attorney (from Jones, Day, Reavis and Pogue in Chicago), additional
advising by environmental attorney and Aquarium environmental advocacy advisor Liz
Georges and a stipend. The recipient will receive valuable hands-on experience
researching timely environmental issues that are relevant to the Aquarium. One
fellowship will be awarded each year through a competitive application process.
Interested students should contact the career services department at their school.
