University of California, Berkeley
The Legal Studies major provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to become familiar with legal ideas, legal institutions, and the legal process. It is designed to provide tools for the reasoned appraisal of how the law works and of the policies that underlie it. The major is based firmly on the view that the study of law and justice has a rich humanistic tradition and that its pursuit can encourage sustained reflection on fundamental values.
The Legal Studies website is currently under construction. For questions, please contact Lauri La Pointe at llapointe at law.berkeley.edu, or call the main office number, 642-4038.
