University of Illinois Chicago School of Law

At UIC Law, our mission is to make a difference in the lives of our students and our community. From our nationally recognized programs and passionate professors to the impact of our Community Legal Clinics, we offer students more than just a legal education. We train them to develop multiple skill sets, master life-long learning, and cultivate a growth mindset. UIC Law prioritizes skills training and values diversity and inclusiveness. We believe in strong academics and making sure students have strong professional development opportunities inside and outside the classroom. We’ve invested in a top-notch student life and leadership office, an excellent bar preparation program, robust career and professionalism support, and we’ve literally changed the campus to meet the needs of tomorrow’s lawyers. And as part of the University of Illinois Chicago—Chicago’s only public Carnegie Research 1 institution—our students have access to the resources and opportunities associated with a large, civic-minded university. At UIC Law, we prepare our students with the knowledge, skills, experience, and values to change lives.
