Learn more about our approach to academics at Quinnipiac Law. As you progress through your coursework, you will reinforce a strong academic foundation in law — research, writing, analysis and oratory — by participating in mock trials, writing for our law journals and representing real clients in pro-bono legal clinics and during externships at corporations, government, nonprofits and private practices.
With multiple ways to earn a JD that aligns with your timeline and legal interests, your pathway to representing clients, impacting legislation, fighting for those without a voice and helping corporations and communities flourish starts here.
Quinnipiac Law offers both full-time and part-time options for students aspiring to earn a JD. Explore both pathways and learn more about adding an optional law concentration or augmenting your JD with a second master's through our dual-degree programs.
The Bridge to Practice program, delivered in partnership with more than sixty local attorneys, judges and legal professionals, introduces incoming law students to the profession and seeks to augment coursework through experiential learning in true-to-life scenarios during each year of legal study.
To be a good lawyer takes practice, which is why we guarantee a clinic or externship experience to every student. These experiences provide dynamic and hands-on learning that accelerates personal and professional development and prepares students for a successful transition into their careers.
