Shareholder Rights Project

> Visit the Shareholder Rights Website

The Shareholder Rights Project (SRP) provides students with the opportunity to obtain hands-on experience with shareholder rights work by assisting public pension funds and charitable organizations to improve corporate governance at publicly traded companies in which they are shareowners. In addition to the clinical work, students will participate in classroom sessions to provide students with background and knowledge useful for undertaking the clinical work in this area.

Enrollment requires an application process and open to Harvard Law School 2L, 3L and LLM students who have taken Corporations or are taking Corporations in the Fall term. To apply, students must submit a statement of interest (maximum 200 words), a resume, an academic transcript (unofficial or official), and can elect to submit a writing sample of no more than 15 pages (one sample only). Applications should be addressed to the instructors and submitted to Emily Lewis at emlewis@law.harvard.edu. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, and interested students are encouraged to apply as early as possible.
