An international look at law – one university’s comparative journey

Their 3-and-a-half week elective course in China at the end of May is a multi-city look at law issues in a comparative context. The most recent Summer Study program featured courses in energy and environmental law and international property law, with additional coursework in Chinese legal history and law. Visits to Chinese universities, law firms, and cultural sites provided students a uniquely comparative view in which to understand the U.S. system as it compares to one of the world’s most powerful and transitional nations.
