Jurisprudence Major
full-time, four-year day program and transfer program
The law and its implications touch our lives on a daily basis. Understanding the links between law, justice and social and political realities can put you one step ahead on any path you choose.
While our bachelor's program in Jurisprudence is designed as pre-law education that combines philosophy, government, history, literature, communication and other fields in the humanities and social sciences, it is not strictly for those students who plan to continue their educations in law school.
