University of Pennsylvania Law School
The hallmarks of the Penn Law experience are a cross-disciplinary, globally focused legal education and a vibrant and collegial community. This pedagogical focus prepares graduates to navigate an increasingly complex world as leaders and influential decision makers. As one of the nation’s leading law schools, Penn Law is part of the University of Pennsylvania, one of the world’s preeminent research universities. Our faculty collaborate with renowned scholars across Penn and throughout the world. Students enrich their legal educations with study in other disciplines via courses and clinics, certificate programs, joint-degree programs, and public interest projects.
As part of the rigors of legal studies at Penn Law and unique among top law schools, our students truly own their educational experiences, actively contributing to a collaborative and supportive environment where they learn to solve problems while developing critical professional skills. By taking risks in the classroom, students learn to challenge their thinking. Working effectively with colleagues on and off campus, they learn about management, leadership, and networking. And by investing in the full life of Penn Law, they discover their strengths and hone their talents.
