Apply for the Law, Justice, and Culture Certificate Program (Deadline Extended)

The Center for Law, Justice & Culture invites students from all majors are invited to apply for the Law, Justice & Culture certificate program. The new extended application deadline is Tuesday, October 25, 2016.

Due to technical difficulties, all students who have applied for the program are asked to email duschins@ohio.edu to confirm application submission and receipt.

This is a competitive program that brings together interdisciplinary coursework from many different departments across the social sciences and humanities to provide students with intellectual training in a “law and society” perspective. It also provides opportunities for faculty mentoring through research projects, internships, study abroad, and career guidance.

Once accepted into the program, Law, Justice & Culture certificate students enroll in LJC 2000: Core Course in Law, Justice & Culture  in spring 2017.

Students are required to take POLS 2200 and SOC 2600, as well as three upper division courses from a list of electives.

At least one LJC elective course must be outside of their majors, to ensure exposure to interdisciplinary perspectives.

As they proceed through the certificate coursework, LJC students participate in the intellectual life of the center and engage in practice-oriented learning opportunities such as internships and research projects, all dealing with issues of democratic governance, social justice, and human rights.

The program is appropriate for students who plan to pursue professions in law, rights advocacy, justice administration, public policy, government, nonprofit organizations, and academic research and teaching, with a US or global focus.
Please contact CLJC Director Haley Duschinski (duschins@ohio.edu) for more information about the LJC Certificate Program.
