James E. Beasley School of Law – Temple University
Founded in 1895, Temple Law School is recognized both nationally and internationally as a leader in legal education. We offer both day and evening programs, and students may enroll on either a full- or part-time basis. Our innovative student-centered curriculum integrates both theory and practice in a collaborative community and is continually evolving in response to new realities and new challenges, such as globalization, technology, and interdisciplinary studies.
Our students are passionate advocates who come from all walks of life and from all corners of the globe. They are more than leaders; they are innovators and creative problem solvers whose thoughtfulness, vision, and courage are quickly put to work in our communities, our nation, and our world.
At the heart of the Temple Law community is our outstanding faculty. They blend groundbreaking scholarship with real-world experience and a passion for teaching. Temple law professors are not content to teach from the casebook and the podium; they are here on the strength of their leadership in the real world, and they are committed to helping their students address problems in the real world.
The Law School’s facilities consist of three buildings located in the midst of a thriving, urban university. Attending law school in the fifth largest city in the country has definite advantages. The city where American democracy was born, Philadelphia boasts state and federal courts at every level; countless law firms, large and small; dozens of municipal agencies; and hundreds of other legal employers.
