What the school says:
About
The Program is focused on the law of government, emphasizing the legal regulation of both the private and public realms of U.S. society. Our curriculum is especially deep in federal law and includes offerings dealings with states and localities and with international and global issues, reflecting the increasing interdependence of world society.
The Program's organizing educational principle is that the best prepared lawyers and analysts in fields of regulatory law have not only a firm grasp of particular subjects, but also a mastery of the theories, political forces, and institutional realities that define public law in the United States. Thus, while our students can choose to focus deeply on a sub-field of regulatory law, we also promote broad examination of cross-cutting and emerging issues.
Students combine a personalized course of study with the opportunity to engage in externships. Students may earn credit for working at courts, in federal agencies, on Capitol Hill, and in a myriad of international organizations including the World Bank and the Pan American Health Organization.
