Suffolk Law offers a wide array of international courses, ranging from public international law, to international finance, to comparative legal cultures. These offerings stress the impact of multiple legal systems on transactions and resolution of disputes, and the role of the lawyer in the world economy. Astute students today understand that being productive contributors to the global society of tomorrow will require familiarity with the rapidly evolving tenets of international law. They are attracted to Suffolk Law by our international law curriculum and Boston's cosmopolitan identity. And they come from myriad international backgrounds, many speak at least one language other than English and our International Law classes include students from more than 30 countries, from Canada to China and beyond.
