法律系的

迦勒亨利,博士,顾问

Pre-law is not a major and has no required courses. 然而, all students considering law school are strongly encouraged to take the following three-course sequence (each offered on alternate years):

  • 波尔3780年 法律与社会
  • 波尔4450年 American Constitutional Law: Federalism and Separation of Powers
  • 波尔4451年 American Constitutional Law: Civil Liberties and Civil Rights

You should also request from the pre-law advisors a copy of the handout, “SPU法学预科,” which lists all law-related courses offered by SPU, as well as important information about the 法学院入学考试 (LSAT), legal internships, and student membership in the 基督教法律协会.

  • If you are interested in a legal career, contact the pre-law advisor in the School of Business, Government and 经济学 as early as possible during your study at SPU.
  • 法律预科顾问 will assist you in choosing a major and a course of study appropriate to law school.
  • 法律预科顾问 will also advise you about preparing for the LSAT.
