Jones Day International Legal Fellowship

  Jones Day announces the commencement of its Jones Day International Legal Fellowship, for the 2011-2012 academic year. This marks the twelfth consecutive year that Jones Day will award grants to students to encourage the study of law in China.

  The 2012 Fellowship awards will be given to law students from selected universities in China. Each winner will receive Rmb15,000. Jones Day grants these Fellowships in the hope that each recipient will use the monies to support their education and experience in whichever legal area they choose to pursue.
