Student/Faculty Collaborations
At every stage in their legal education at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at 泫圖弝け, students have opportunities to participate in the facultys cutting-edge legal scholarship. Whether as a research assistant or a co-author, law students are collaborating with faculty members on work that will shape the discourse of tomorrow. In these roles, students engage in a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights with the faculty, thereby immersing themselves in the fabric of legal scholarship by analyzing pressing legal issues. Here are a few examples of the diverse ways that law students are part of Haub Laws culture of collaboration and scholarly excellence.

Working as a Research Assistant with Haub Law faculty was proven to be far more valuable than I could ever have imagined, shared Grimes.
