Law in an International Context
Study abroad
Study Abroad During Law School
Studying abroad during law school offers the opportunity to immerse yourself in a new culture, learn about another country's legal system, improve your cross-cultural skills and enhance your global perspective.
St. Thomas Law students have studied a wide range of subjects such as comparative systems or topics in international law in many areas of the world, including Chile, Germany, France, England, India, Netherlands, Greece, China, Argentina, Ireland, Mexico, South Africa and Italy.
The School of Law also has a partnership with Pázmány Péter Catholic University in Budapest that offers our students the opportunity to study abroad in Hungary and complete an international legal internship.
