JS 0554 - Philosophy of Law

3 Credit Hours
Relates traditional themes of legal philosophy to the concerns of modern society. Through readings and discussions students will be exposed to controversial questions and imaginative use of cases and stories. Emphasis will be on understanding the evolution of theory within varied topics of law. This graduate-level course may meet concurrently with an undergraduate course, but students may not enroll in both the undergraduate and graduate courses simultaneously. Undergraduate students who enroll in the graduate course must have instructor permission, submit all required documentation, and are required to complete all the graduate coursework. Undergraduate students may be able to count hours toward a graduate degree (but this is not guaranteed).
