Columbia Law School is inviting applications to its U.S. Business Law Academy, which is held this summer. The program, designed for foreign-trained law students but open to practitioners as well, offers an educational and cultural experience with select topics in U.S. legal institutions and business law taught by scholars from Columbia and other world-renowned faculties.
The Academy offers an accessible introduction to the Socratic Method, one of the foundations of U.S. legal education, and presentations about LL.M. programs and strategies used by U.S. law graduates to find jobs. The program also includes practice-oriented lectures by attorneys; networking events with fellow participants; and visits to professional and cultural sites in New York.
