Academic Law Centers

There’s no substitute for being on the front lines, showing that you can do the work.

The faculty of the three law centers at New England Law | Boston engineer critical real law, real life connections. Professors, researchers, and students come together through the legal centers to focus their study on the disciplines that most engage them and direct their work toward the issues in which they most want to invest.

The experience can greatly benefit the trajectory of a student's legal career.  Center faculty teach courses that lay the foundation for collaborative research and outreach projects, and our law school centers address emerging needs across a broad spectrum of concerns.

Criminal justice reform, environmental advocacy, domestic violence, international human rights, war crimes, universal jurisdiction, corporate governance, e-commerce, and intellectual property protection are just a few of the areas in which New England Law students, professors, and alumni have moved beyond the walls of the classroom to make an impact on the real world.
