Founded in 1949, UCLA School of Law is the youngest of the top-ranked law schools in the U.S. Its faculty are influential teachers and scholars, and its 18,000-plus alumni are leaders in government, industry, social justice and the legal profession. The school offers students a strong foundation in the law and practical training in a collaborative, intellectually rich environment.
UCLA Law offers a mix of programs, centers, institutes, courses, clinical opportunities and extracurricular engagements — from Native American law to trial advocacy, and from environmental law to human rights, as well as constitutional law to critical race studies, and from corporate law to public interest law and policy — students can earn specializations in several disciplines.
