Overview

Constitutional Studies requires coursework in four areas: The Ancient Foundations of Law, Liberty, and Self-Government; The Philosophical Background of the American Constitution; The American Founding; and The Constitutional Legacy in the Modern World. A range of courses, some of the most exciting on campus, can fulfill these requirements. Students will also have the opportunity to take courses with University of Oklahoma College of Law faculty while still undergraduates. OU is one of the only top-tier universities where a student can focus their undergraduate studies on the Constitution.

The constitutional studies curriculum emphasizes skills – critical analysis, persuasive writing, public speaking – that will be useful in any walk of life. Constitutional studies is an ideal preparation for law school, but it is also a great education for anyone passionate about their citizenship. The minor, especially, makes a great complement to pre-professional majors.
