If you plan to attend law school and start a career as an attorney in a private law firm or government agency, this is the program for you. The Bachelor of Science in Legal Studies program emphasizes the political, governmental, and constitutional framework of the American legal system while developing your communication, critical thinking, and research skills. The program allows you to select elective courses that focus on a particular legal topic which can prepare you for professional success in an existing or future career in business, government, health care, or the service industry.

Innovative Program

If you’re looking to start or advance your career but don’t want to spend four years earning your education, we have an alternative solution for you. Our Advanced Start Bachelor of Science in Paralegal Studies option is a program that combines the career-oriented focus of a two-year program with the academic curriculum of a four-year program.
