Our Full-time JD Program

At the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University rigorous first-year courses build a strong foundation of traditional legal concepts and procedural rules. Our low faculty-to-student ratios in both classrooms and clinics ensure a highly personalized educational experience. Upper-class students move quickly into a distinctive skills-building curriculum. Versed thoroughly in legal theory and practice, our students graduate with the skills and knowledge most valued by employers.

Paths to Practice

Our Paths to Practice approach provides students with a roadmap for pursuing their particular interest in law. Earn an Advanced Certificate in Environmental Law, International Law or Health Law and Policy, or concentrate your studies in a number of legal fields including business law, criminal law or dispute resolution.
