Preet Bharara, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, could have any job with any firm he chooses. But in the meantime, Mr. Bharara will join New York University's law school on April 1 as a distinguished scholar in residence, according to a school announcement. The position is considered full-time, but Bharara may take on other engagements.

 

Bharara said he welcomes the opportunity "to continue addressing the issues I so deeply care about - criminal and social justice, honest government, national security, civil rights, and corporate accountability, to name a few." He is also expected to collaborate with the school's research centers including those focused on cyber security and criminal law, and to participate in panel discussions and other events.

 

A graduate of Harvard and Columbia Law, Mr. Bharara has been a frequent visitor to NYU.
