More Than a Classroom
At Emory Law, understanding the theoretical application of the law is simply the foundation.
Our students expect to be prepared for practical application before they finish their third year. In order to meet those expectations, we encourage our students to step outside the classroom and engage the law in new and meaningful ways. We encourage you to explore and learn more about a few of our our distinguished programs that will help you make the transtition from classroom to practice.
