Legal Studies Minor |
The interdisciplinary minor in legal studies is administered by the School of Business. It includes course work from several schools of the College, and it is designed to provide a broad education in which students study law from a humanistic and social point of view. This minor is not available to students pursuing the B.S. in business administration or accounting.
The purpose of the minor is to allow non-business majors to develop a greater understanding of the impact of law and legal institutions on society and public policy. Students study the sources and evolution of law, the legal process, and how law functions in a complex social, political, and economic system.
The minor consists of 18 credits. The two required foundation courses introduce legal methodology including legal analysis, the Socratic method, and case-law studies. In addition, students select two courses on specific applications of the law and two courses on the larger social and ethical dimensions of the law. The requirements of the minor should complement and supplement the majors of students with diverse career goals.
