Faculty overview

You will learn "law", which is the major premise of the rules of a law-abiding nation. Laws do not restrict people's actions, but rather guarantee that they can act freely as long as they are not violated. In modern society where people's values are diversified and interests are mixed, we develop human resources who can always maintain legal order and social justice with the flexible and accurate judgment required as legal professionals.
