Law: First-Year Courses
|
|
|
Designed to introduce the essential analytical skills needed for your upper-level courses, the first-year curriculum emphasizes the many sources of law that govern our society–judge-made common law, statutory law and regulatory law as developed by governmental agencies–and the two major systems of law in the United States–the civil justice system and the criminal justice system.
In your first year, you will develop the skills to read cases, read and interpret statutory and regulatory materials and understand the fundamental principles of the traditional first-year subjects. For each first-year course there is a corresponding tutorial in our Academic Support Program.
