Emory Law has it all: faculty who are experts in their respective areas of law and dynamic teachers in the classroom, countless opportunities for hands-on, experiential learning, and an environment of support and cooperation that encourages challenging the status quo. Emory Law empowers you to discern your legal path right from the start of your legal education. In your first semester, Legislation and Regulation introduces you to the central role of legislatures and administrative agencies in the practice of law today. The course serves as a primary building block for Constitutional Law, Administrative Law, Legislation, and a number of specialized, upper level courses. In the spring, you will have the opportunity to take a first-year elective so you can explore an area of possible legal interest or get a head start on an area that already fascinates you. Elective courses vary each year and provide a strong foundation for more specialized legal study.
