It is known that the University of Miami School of Law has the fourth largest law curriculum in the U.S. Many of these courses include the essential core lawyering courses, but the law school always has its finger on the pulse of innovation.

In the last few years, the law school launched concentrations and compact, short courses. These enable students to focus their studies, touch upon niche legal areas, expose them to many areas of law, and help them turn areas of interest into practice. 

In this way, Miami Law has reconceived the traditional law school curriculum by launching creative new courses and bringing back courses to help students prepare for the real-world tasks they may face as attorneys.
