What is the Student Membership Program?
Food and Drug Law Institute’s Student Membership Program provides the space, connections, and resources needed to expand your knowledge and start a career in food and drug law.
From informal member exclusive events to custom student experiences during select conferences, the student program allows you to gain leadership experience, network, and learn from fellow FDLI members.
