Call for applications for the 2019-2020 Judicial Fellows Programme of the International Court of Justice
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) invites applications for the 2019-2020 Judicial Fellows Programme.
The Programme was established in 1999 to enable recent law graduates to gain experience working at the ICJ. It aims to improve participants’ understanding of international law and of the Court’s procedures by actively involving them in the work of the Court and allowing them to build on their experience under the supervision of a judge.
The deadline for the submission of applications is 8 February 2019. The Court is expected to reach its final decision in March/April 2019. Nominating universities will be notified accordingly.
Submission of applications and selection of candidates
While it is possible to nominate a single candidate, the Court encourages universities to propose more than one. Universities are also strongly encouraged to limit nominations to candidates who have excellent results in their law studies and who have demonstrated an interest in international law through their studies, publications or work experience. The Court does not accept applications from individuals.
