Get on track for a professional degree

From medical school to engineering to law, pre-professional tracks in our undergraduate programs prepare you for a professional degree.

Pre-Law

The 法律预科咨询课程 helps students develop the communicative, analytical, and methodological skills important to the legal profession. The American Bar Association does not recommend any particular undergraduate majors, as students are admitted to law school from almost every academic discipline. 

Many students choose to major in subjects considered to be traditional preparation for law school, such as history, English, communications, business, 或者政治科学. We recommend students explore a broad liberal arts education to prepare for law school, graduate school, or employment in the public or private sector.
