Schulich School of Law

The Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie plays an extraordinary role in Canadian legal education. What began as a "daring experiment" in two rented rooms in the fall of 1883 became the model for law schools across Canada and the British Commonwealth. Dalhousie University blends the finest academic traditions with innovative thinking and outstanding educational opportunities. Here, in one of North America's most dynamic university communities, is a warm and welcoming university that attracts students from around the globe. With 12 faculties and 4,000 courses in 180 areas of study, Dalhousie offers students a wealth of choice and flexible degree programs in one of Canada's leading research institutions. We're proud of our past and confident in our future. We've been at the heart of Halifax, a lively coastal city, for almost 200 years. Our historic, tree-lined campuses combine the welcoming atmosphere of Canada's east coast with the international prestige of a big-name school.
