We are proud to announce that on August 16, 2019, The John Marshall Law School and the University of Illinois at Chicago join ... ed to create UIC Law, Chicago’s only public law school. With shared commitments to access, diversity, excellence, and innovation, this match made perfect sense. UIC—Chicago’s largest university and its only public Carnegie Research 1 institution—enjoys strengths in areas including health sciences, engineering and technology, urban planning and public affairs, urban education, sustainability, the humanities, and business. UIC’s strengths derive from its top-tier faculty and staff who are committed to the promise of public education, the advancement of knowledge in their scholarly fields, and the imperatives of social justice and civic engagement. Located in the heart of Chicago, UIC is on the cutting edge of scholarship and service for a rapidly urbanizing world. As UIC’s 16th college, UIC Law is creating interdisciplinary programs to train students for the future of law practice through multidisciplinary perspectives; enhancing our traditional strengths in intellectual property, lawyering skills, and experiential education; and building innovative programs in law and health sciences. We will continue to engage with the community, promote excellence, inspire innovation, and produce the next generation of talented lawyers and leaders for Chicago and the world. read more
