The Paralegal and Pre-law Studies Program prepares students for entry level positions as paralegal professionals. Our students see the law as a tool of social change and are prepared to function as professionals or continue their studies in graduate or law school. The program accomplishes objective outcomes through a course of study that emphasizes:
- The familiarity of the theoretical and skill foundations necessary for entry-level Paralegal/Pre-Law professionals;
- Familiarity with concepts of professional ethics and the ability to apply principles to ethical problems encountered in the profession; and
- A broad based program of general education that prepares students for successful completion of graduate studies or law school.
Vision Statement
The Paralegal and Pre-law Studies Program seeks to develop students who will impact their community in a positive way. They understand law as a tool of social justice and empowerment. They will use their education to improve their lives and their community by demonstrating a commitment to social justice and concern for those who look to the legal system for assistance.
