You're Here to Learn to Practice Law. We're Here to Make That Happen.

At the University of Baltimore School of Law, you will learn doctrine, theory and skills through traditional study and through clinical and lawyering courses. Your education will be enriched by work on journals, externships, membership in student organizations, moot court teams, student government, and your participation in centers and programs focused on local, national and global issues. The School of Law also offers opportunities to study abroad so that you may focus on international and comparative law.
