About the course

This interdisciplinary program subscribes to the idea that law is a tool of social organization and control that is best understood by studying both its rhetorical artifacts (letters) and the empirical consequences of its application (society). Courses are led by faculty members from the Law School as well as such departments as Anthropology, History, and Classics. Students have access to the 600,000-volume D?Angelo Law Library, one of the nation?s leading centers of legal scholarship. After completing introductory work in legal reasoning, students take additional courses in law and society, plus other courses that support related topics, areas, skills, or concerns. Majors produce two substantial research papers during their junior and senior years. This major is not open to transfer students, and has a competitive application process in the student?s second year. The Introductory Course must precede all other course work in the major, because it establishes the intellectual moorings of the program. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
