Features
For 175 years, Carolina Law has produced top lawyers prepared to practice from Main Street to Wall Street and anywhere in between. That's what sets the Law degree from University of North Carolina Chapel Hill apart from other law schools.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- Carolina Law students consistently cite the friendly and supportive student body as one of the best aspects of their experience in law school.
- Our students treat each other as colleagues instead of competitors, and it all starts on day one in our "small sections." These are groups of roughly 30 first-year students who take required courses together in their first and second semesters.
- In addition to creating a solid foundation for a legal education in these classes, students are also creating lifelong friendships and close relationships with professors.
- The curriculum for the second and third year of law school builds upon the fundamentals learned in the first year and allows the student the freedom to develop a path that supports his or her career goals. Upon graduation, Carolina Law students will be able to begin their legal career at a high level of readiness.
