GEORGETOWN LAW offers one of the largest transnational legal education programs in the world. At its core is a faculty including over 110 full-time faculty members, more than 30 of whom are currently focused on transnational and international curriculum subjects. These full-time faculty members are joined by over 90 distinguished Washington, D.C. practitioners from inside and outside the government. In addition, faculty exchanges bring several foreign law professors to visit each year.

Together, these scholars sustain an array transnational, international, and comparative law courses that is extraordinarily comprehensive. Over 150 such offerings are available, in a wide range of topic areas such as:

• Business in a Global Context
• International Security and Conflict Resolution
• Law and Development
• International Migration Law and Policy
• Comparative and Regional Legal Studies
• International Environmental Law
• International Human Rights Law
• International Trade and Economic Law
• International Civil Society Law

Three initiatives exemplify the strength of transnational studies at Georgetown:

Week One: Law in a Global Context. Week One engages the entire first year JD class in a week-long simulation exercise built around a complex transnational legal problem. The program blends U.S. law, foreign or international law, various dispute resolution mechanisms, and structured role-playing.

Center for Transnational Legal Studies (CTLS). Upper level students have the opportunity to study at the new Center for Transnational Legal Studies in London. Georgetown students study transnational legal topics alongside classmates drawn from over a dozen select partner schools, located in almost as many countries around the globe. A truly transnational faculty, drawn from many of the same schools, offers a curriculum specifically designed for those students intent on transnational careers.

Global Law Scholars: Georgetown created the Global Law Scholars Program in response to the changing nature of legal practice and in recognition of the Law Center's prominent positioning-both academic and geographic-with regard to many of the most important cross-border legal institutions. The program offers access to a special curriculum as well as invited speakers and networking opportunities. Participation is limited to a select group of students who have a demonstrated commitment to the international sphere and who are interested in intensive preparation for the increasingly global nature of law practice, in the United States and abroad.

Georgetown offers a vast array of additional transnational opportunities. For more information, please see visit the Office of Transnational Programs website at www.law.georgetown.edu/otp.
