We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting applications for our prestigious 2026 Summer Scholar Programme. This initiative serves as a cornerstone of our commitment to fostering the next generation of professionals within the legal sector, providing a structured environment where academic excellence meets high-level commercial application.
Scholars will engage with our diverse membership base, gaining insights into various facets of the profession and build a foundational network that will serve them throughout their careers. We are looking for candidates who demonstrate not only strong academic records but also a sophisticated analytical approach and a collaborative spirit.
The programme is tailored each year to cover contemporary legal issues and will include an assigned, team-based research project, working towards a presentation to external delegates and the production of a report for publication. You will be overseen by Principal Solicitor, Sophie Mills WS and assisted by the Society’s trainee solicitor, Kirsty McEwing.
Interested candidates are invited to review the full eligibility criteria and submission requirements in the advert below.
Applications must be submitted in full by Friday 1 May to be considered for the 2026 cohort. If you have any questions about the programme or application process, please contact Kirsty McEwing.
