Quinnipiac Law
Facilities and Centers
Lecture halls alone don’t do a legal education justice. Spanning three floors, the Quinnipiac University School of Law offers all the resources you need to train for the legal profession. And our two centers of unique academic strength — one in health law, the other in dispute resolution — provide enriched resources for students interested in those important fields.
School of Law Center
Our facilities include a 150-seat courtroom featuring a jury deliberation room and judge’s chambers, a fully equipped legal clinic supporting a multitude of practice areas, a dispute resolution suite and a mock trial practice room.
Practicing law successfully requires a team-based approach. The 13 classrooms in the School of Law are sophisticated, modern and designed for collaborative learning. They are complete with digital multimedia capabilities that allow for student-centered learning and access to vital information. Our 18 seminar-style rooms facilitate group work, while the library provides multiple reading areas for quiet study.

Academic Centers
We have deep expertise in two crucial areas of the profession: health law and dispute resolution. Both quickly evolving fields require in-depth knowledge, creativity and compassion.
Our two academic centers bring experts to campus to engage with students, design panel discussions and host conferences. They house extensive academic resources and sponsor special research.
Alumni who take advantage of the centers’ resources are redefining what a JD means in the workplace. They find meaningful work in hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, corporations, courthouses, government agencies and nonprofits. They bring their knowledge and skills to complex settings where collaboration is needed to get things done.
Center for Health Law and Policy
Re-imagining the law as a healing profession
Health law has been an important focus at Quinnipiac long before it became a prominent topic of national discussion. Now the field is burgeoning, and we are uniquely positioned to prepare a generation of legal advocates and leaders.
The Center for Health Law and Policy serves as a focal point for the sharing and understanding of the various roles that legal and health professionals can play. The center sponsors panel discussions, lectures on health care law and conferences that address the most pressing health care-related issues of our time, such as gun violence, stem cell research, animal rights in medical testing and health care reform. Health law encompasses many domains of law and practice, including insurance, corporate mergers and acquisitions, access to justice, access to nutrition, human rights, conflict resolution, environmental protection and ethics and regulation. Our Center for Health Law and Policy offers students the broad perspectives they need to represent clients and resolve conflicts across the legal spectrum.
As a university that educates the trifecta of primary care providers — doctors, nurse practitioners and physician assistants — and other health professions all on the same campus, Quinnipiac is a perfect place for interdisciplinary learning and collaboration.
