The Future' Lawyers Program aims to orient students to the field of law. The program covers the due process of law, the many careers in the world of law, the difficult-to-navigate requirements of the application to law school, and much more.
Each day begins with a lecture outlining a skill or concept critical to a career in law, whether it be the inner workings of the court system or how to prepare for the LSAT. From there, students build teamwork skills and collaborative thinking by engaging with one another. Guided by qualified student mentors, the curriculum aims to provide a comprehensive look at legal systems and allow students to meaningfully explore the field.
