This placement involves research, as well as opportunities for observation and mentoring by the judges at Ontario Superior Court or at the Ontario Court of Justice in Kingston. Each student will spend an average of two days a week (12-16 hours) on the placement. Students selected for this course must have a strong academic record and a demonstrated interest in criminal law. Students are required to keep a course log and write a reflective piece (10-12 pages) and the end of the term. The students will meet periodically with the Faculty supervisor. This is an excellent experiential opportunity for students who will be applying for a Clerkship (or who has secured one).
