Required Curriculum

The first year of law training is crucial for establishing a solid foundation in both substantive law and legal methodology. It is during this time that law students must  learn the conceptual, analytical, and research methods that are essential to participating effectively as lawyers. To facilitate this important training, the first-year, full-time curriculum requires 16 class hours per week in the fall term and 15 or 16 class hours per week in the spring term. Electives are not permitted until the required curriculum is completed.
