ABA Approved Since 1923
Established in 1817, Harvard is the oldest continuously
operating law school in the UnitedStates. The School provides comprehensive
training to prepare its graduates for law practice, for public service at the
local, state, federal and international levels, and for law teaching and legal
scholarship. Through its faculty, students, and graduates, Harvard LawSchool seeks to make
substantial contributions toward improving our knowledge and understanding of
the law.
Harvard Law School is a vibrant, dynamic place with a talented and diverse student body of
approximately 2,000 students, a distinguished full‑time faculty of 88
professors and assistant professors, 10 clinical and assistant clinical
professors of law, and some 150 lecturers, visiting professors, clinical
instructors and professors emeriti. The School's curriculum includes such
diverse courses as Constitutional Law, Criminal Law, Corporate Finance,
Environmental Law, Negotiation, Family Law, and International and Comparative
Law. In 2006, a new first‑year curriculum was approved that will add required
courses in International and Comparative Law, Legislation and Regulation, and
Complex Problem Solving. One of the largest Clinical Programs in the U.S. offers
students a wide range of fieldwork and simulation courses as well as
opportunities to participate in extracurricular practice‑related
activities in Harvard‑operated legal services clinics. Among its nearly
20 research programs are programs relating to such subjects as law and
economics, international financial systems, East Asian legal studies, human
rights, the legal profession, and negotiation and alternative dispute
resolution.
In addition to a challenging curriculum, students can
choose among numerous extracurricular activities, including approximately 90 student
organizations and 14 student‑edited journals. Activities range from a
battered women's advocacy project to a law and technology society to intramural
sports and dramatic productions.
Shaped by its role as a preeminent national law school,
the School is working to strengthen its already significant global orientation.
The curriculum contains some 75 courses in the international and comparative
law field. With approximately 250 lawyers from more than 50 countries in the
LL.M. and S.J.D. programs, the School is deeply committed to advanced legal
study and scholarship.
The Harvard Law Library is the largest academic law
library in the world. Its collections, numbering approximately 1.7 million
volumes, support the teaching and research activities of the School and serve
as a resource for legal scholars throughout the world.
The Office of Career Services provides a wide variety
of placement and career counseling services to students, employers and
graduates. A separate Office of Public Interest Advising helps students find
government and public interest opportunities. The School's some 35,000 living
alumni have distinguished careers in practice, legal education, the judiciary,
government, business, and public interest organizations. Five of the current
members of the Supreme Court of the United States
attended Harvard Law School.
Harvard Law School's outstanding faculty and
extraordinarily gifted students, its size and prodigious resources and its
location at the heart of Harvard University and Cambridge contribute to its
leadership role in American and international legal education.
