We selected these graduates to show a range of roles across local, state, and federal government.

As you will read, the alumni we spoke to report a deep sense of satisfaction from serving their communities. And Colorado Law, where they each began their legal journey, offers a plethora of opportunities for students interested in pursuing government work. The school鈥檚 proximity to Denver, Colorado鈥檚 capital and the largest city in the Rocky Mountain region, offers students unmatched opportunities with the Office of the Attorney General and dozens of state and federal government agencies headquartered in the Denver/Boulder metropolitan area.

The law school supports unpaid government internships with a robust Public Service Summer Fellowship program and one-year postgraduate fellowships in partnership with the Denver City Attorney鈥檚 Office and Colorado District Attorney鈥檚 Counsel.
