At the Dale E. Fowler School of Law, we prepare future lawyers for life as professionals, assisting them every step of the way to become effective attorneys and excel in their legal careers. Students learn practical skills in tandem with legal theory so that they are prepared to practice from day one on the job.
Our Career Services Office (CSO) offers a variety of services to support prospective employers in connecting with potential candidates, presenting to student organizations and conducting an effective candidate search:
