Law Minor

The undergraduate minor in Law at The University of Tulsa College of Law has the general aim of making the law a centerpiece for interdisciplinary inquiry into the diverse ways in which cultures-notably, but not exclusively, American society-have sought to achieve order and justice through appeals to recognized authority. The law provides a way to think through a different intellectual lens about the evolution of society and the problems that threaten society.

The minor in Law requires a total of 12 hours of coursework.  At least 6 hours must be at the 3000 level or above.

Some upper-level courses in the minor integrate undergraduates into regular J.D. offerings; others are undergraduate courses.

Any course with a LAWU prefix will count towards the minor.  Representative courses which have been offered recently include:

• LAWU 3082-3 Law and Literature  
• LAWU 4063 Immigration Law  
• LAWU 4153 Law and Economics  
• LAWU 4162 Climate Change  
• LAWU 4173 Cybersecurity Law and Policy
