Program Overview

Our interdisciplinary program explores the American legal system from a wide range of perspectives, including economics, philosophy, theology and history. You’ll study with leading scholars and legal professionals and build competence in writing, research and critical thinking. You’ll learn how the legal system works, how it interrelates with social justice and how to assist people in asserting their rights.

In addition, the program’s foundational studies in the legal system, legal terminology and the liberal arts provide strong preparation for law or graduate school. There is also the option to take several graduate courses towards multiple degrees, such as conflict resolution, social work or library sciences and business by enrolling in an accelerated BA to graduate degree saving time and money.
