A Welcome from Dean Roger J. Dennis:

Dean Roger J. DennisThe vision of the Earle Mack School of Law at Drexel University is extraordinarily exciting. We are building a law school that is producing outstanding, reflective practitioners. We are committed to providing students with excellent teaching across a broad-based classroom curriculum along with comprehensive opportunities for experiential learning through simulations, co-operative education, clinics and pro bono programs.  At the same time, we are committed through our research activities to advancing the scholarly mission of a great research university.

Philadelphia has a legal community that is unmatched in its richness and quality. The bar has been most supportive of our approach. Our cooperative education and pro bono programs provide us with splendid opportunities to deeply engage with practicing lawyers. Our curricular concentrations in Business and Entrepreneurship Law, Health Law, and Intellectual Property Law match well the strengths of the bar and region's economy.  We also offer one of the few joint J.D.-Ph.D. programs in law and psychology in the U.S.  Our graduates are well positioned to become the next generation of leaders of the profession in the region and nationally.

The progress we made in our first three years has been astonishing.  Our first class of 160 graduates was a talented, hard working group of individuals.  We added equally talented classes in the fall of 2007 and 2008.  The faculty and staff that have joined Drexel to launch our venture also are outstanding.  We have a great mix of senior and junior faculty, professors who are committed to collaborating with our students to build a special law school.  Our professors are deeply engaged in scholarship and have been publishing in prestigious law journals at a remarkable rate. Our law school faculty, staff, and students have created a real sense of community. We have developed an administrative infrastructure and law building to support our efforts, including a technologically advanced legal research center. I invite you to learn more about us by reviewing our web site in detail.  If you have further questions please contact me at RJD45@Drexel.edu.  For information about our admissions process please click here.
