Thesis Trainee

Our Thesis Trainee program is designed to support you throughout the writing process. As a Thesis Trainee, you are not expected to work, yet you will have access to our extensive knowledge base, expertise, and practical support.

Our Thesis Trainee program helps develop your research skills, since you will have the use of our extensive library, databases and other resources at your fingertips. You will have a unique opportunity to discuss your ideas with our lawyers and to engage in more in-depth dialogue about your thesis with your assigned tutor and mentor. You will have the opportunity to develop – not only in terms of your own expertise but in the profession in general – while surrounded by inspired and inspiring colleagues who take the time to help and encourage you.

Writing a thesis requires full-time focus, which is why you are not expected to participate in any client assignments. However, as a Thesis Trainee, you are invited to participate in various events and training sessions arranged by Roschier University, if you choose.

In order to be eligible for the Thesis Trainee program you should be in the project phase of your studies, and the topic of your thesis should relate to one of the firm’s practices. You do not need to have an exact title for your thesis when applying, but you do need to have a general idea of the area of law you would be interested in writing about. During the program, our lawyers can help you to determine the subject and scope of your thesis.

Once your thesis has been completed and approved, you will receive a one-time payment.
