Overview

Within Hartwick College’s Pre-Law course you’ll not only develop a broad educational background in policy analysis, legal writing and research, economics and critical thinking, but you’ll build your specific FlightPath, honing your focus on civil and human rights, white collar crime and cybersecurity, or test out your legal arguments in mock trial classes.

Many Career Paths

No matter what area of law you want to specialize in, from criminal law to international, environmental or business, you’ll be prepared at Hartwick.
