We take your education personally.

Loyola Law places a unique emphasis on comparative and international law owing to its location in the State of Louisiana. Due to the confluence of laws and practices rooted in Civil Law and Common Law, Louisiana is now considered to be a mixed jurisdiction. The College of Law’s dual curriculum, its Jesuit heritage and its geographic location in the international port city of New Orleans, with its richly diverse cultural heritage, also contribute to its global focus. 

Loyola has a number of options for students who wish to pursue interdisciplinary studies.  Our joint degree programs create a comprehensive curriculum in multiple areas of study.
