The Summer Study of Law in Beijing, China Program offered by the Duquesne
University School of Law is considered to be one of
the best of its kind offered in the United States. This
popular program provides law students from all over the
world the unique opportunity to discover and learn about
the legal system in the country of China. Students who
are enrolled in this program will travel to the city of
Beijing, China to take legal course-work that will
enhance their understanding of Chinese law.
Today, Chinese
law itself is evolving, as one of the world's
oldest and most insular cultures opens to the
world. Nowhere are these changes more evident than
in Beijing, the center of Chinese government. With
China playing an increasing role in global
commerce and politics, an understanding of its
legal system and cultural roots is
vital.

This first
opportunity to study law in Beijing was
inaugurated in 1995 by the Duquesne
University School of Law. The program is
officially ABA approved and co-sponsored by China
University of Political Science and Law
(CUPL), China's largest and most prestigious law
school. The program also provides the first internship
opportunities for students' at Beijing law
firms. |
The summer
program introduces English-speaking law students from
throughout the world to the origins of the Chinese legal
system, its development and current status, and the
changes being made to facilitate China's evolution from
a state-controlled planned economy to a market
economy.
