J.D. Certificate in Legal Innovation and Technology

Overview

Chicago-Kent is strongly committed to preparing students for new frontiers in the legal industry. The Certificate Program in Legal Innovation and Technology is a response to the demands of the changing legal market, which increasingly values professionals who can supplement their deep legal knowledge with a broad set of other skills—namely core competencies in quantitative methods and emerging technology—to make the delivery of legal services better and more efficient.

Students in the program will hear from professionals whose jobs are directly related to skills learned in class. The program, run though The Law Lab and directed by Professor of Law Daniel Martin Katz, is an interdisciplinary teaching and research center devoted to legal futurism that examines the intersections of law and technology, mathematics, science, and engineering.
