Juris Doctor (3 Years)

About this programme

We blend the study of legal doctrine with the hands-on learning of practical skills. Unlike other law schools, our law graduates are exempted from the articling requirement as a result of the integrated practical skills in all three years of our legal program. Law graduates may immediately sit for the bar exams and enter the legal profession practice-ready. The Bora Laskin Faculty of Law was a collaborative effort in Thunder Bay to serve the northern Ontario region and providing access to justice in our region. We are a small community law school with class sizes that allow students and faculty members to get to know each other. * The LUSU Medical/Dental Insurance (SMEDF) policy is effective September 1, for the 12 months ending August 31.
