The MU School of Law offers a collegial environment, reinforced by a small student body and a low faculty-student ratio. The intimacy of this setting, coupled with reasonable cost, consistently high bar passage rates, a network of alumni around the globe and access to top scholars in the legal world, make MU Law one of the best values in the nation.
Degree Programs
An outstanding faculty with award-winning teachers who rank consistently high in scholarly productivity and impact.

MU Law School hosts a number of scholarly activities for faculty and students. The Faculty Colloquium series brings well-regarded academics from all over the world to give scholarly presentations on a wide variety of subjects to the faculty. The series includes a speaker exchange workshop, which allows our faculty to travel to participating schools and present their work. Our internal faculty workshops provide an opportunity for our faculty to present their works-in-progress to their peers prior to publication. Additionally, we host a number of symposia and conferences throughout the year that bring together academics, students, and practitioners to explore cutting edge legal topics.
