Course Catalog
Overview
UC Law SF’s size – more than 70 full-time faculty and hundreds of adjunct practitioner-faculty members – allows us to offer breadth and depth across a wide range of disciplines and practice settings, drawing on insights of our research faculty and on lawyers at the cutting edge of the development of law and policy. The Course Catalog below is a snapshot of a curriculum that is constantly evolving as the law evolves in domains as diverse as tax, civil rights, privacy, immigration, and the regulation of drugs.
The 1L curriculum is largely guided, as it is at nearly all law schools nationally, to provide students a foundational understanding of law and legal analysis, though students may choose a statutory elective in courses ranging from IP to environmental law. Students have the ability to design their own upper schedules, developing their practice skills or gaining and gaining substantive expertise in their chosen fields. Come to UC Law SF with a specific goal or an open mind – we have the curriculum to intellectually challenge you, develop your skills, and prepare you for practice.
