What will I learn?

The Comparative and International Law Institute (CILI) responds to the intensified need for competent lawyers to effectively advise on the laws of more than one country. Through the Comparative and International Law Certificate program, CILI prepares students for careers in the public and private areas of international law, including such skills as direct negotiation with foreign governments, multinational corporations and international financial institutions. The Comparative and International Law Institute (CILI) is a certificate program designed to give students the opportunity to pursue a concentration of courses in the public and private areas of international law. Students are encouraged to submit an application to CILI at the same time they enroll in the J.D. program, but may apply no later than the end of their third semester in law school, providing space is available in their respective graduating class. CILI applications submitted along with the application to the J.D. program will not be reviewed until the applicant is accepted to the law school.
