Pre-Law

An advantage of the University’s core curriculum is that it develops the habits of critical and logical thinking that are central to admission to, and success in, law school. In addition, students planning to attend law school should place the greatest emphasis on skill in both oral and written communication. Both the Bachelor of Science in Humanities and the Bachelor of Science in Technical and Professional Communication provide a thorough education in communication and critical thinking, skills essential to the study of law. The Humanities degree, especially, provides excellent preparation by offering knowledge of the context and development of the U.S. system of law and government.
