Law is at the center of every critical issue facing our society today, from artificial intelligence and healthcare to the environment and everything in between. At the UCI School of Law, we are driven to improve our local, national and global communities by grappling with important issues as scholars, as practitioners and as teachers who are preparing the next generation of leaders. Unconstrained by decades of dated practices, we capitalize on our freedom to break new ground. As thoughtful risk-takers, we are ready and excited to innovate and forge our own path. Our school is making a difference. Let’s go change the world together.
