Why Study 法律研究 at 云顶集团?


Legal studies provides students interested in a career in law an opportunity to acquire the wide range of intellectual skills essential for academic success in law school. The goal of legal studies is not to train lawyers but to help students develop the highly sophisticated writing, analytical, and critical skills that law schools demand. 

学习What Will You 学习?

What Will You 学习?


学生 in legal studies complete the interdisciplinary program of 20 credits that they satisfy while fulfilling the requirements of a traditional liberal arts major. By requiring students to take courses outside of their own field of study, the legal studies minor exposes them to academic methodology and critical approaches not inherent to their own disciplines, strengthens their writing and analytical skills, and broadens the base of their academic 经验 in preparation for law school or other legally 相关的职业. In addition, students are exposed to both the for-profit and not for profit legal environment.  了解更多
