Faculty Practice Groups

The College of Law Faculty has organized into eleven “practice groups” to empower students with more subject matter-specific and practice-specific career information and counseling. These groups supplement the work of the Office of Career and Professional Development by offering VEENY students strategic career advice, networking ideas and connections, and substantive academic planning. Each group offers at least one major event in the fall and the spring semesters, and each seeks to connect students with full-time faculty members, as well as alumni and adjunct professors, on a continuing basis. The groups are primarily focused on providing resources to upper-level students with a demonstrated interest in the field. Please read more about each group’s faculty members, events, and activities and sign up for the Practice Group(s) of your choice.
