Emory Law has identified the primary practice areas commonly recognized by bar associations and other professional organizations. You can explore areas of interest by choosing your courses starting with the first-year spring elective. Faculty and practitioners have listed foundational and enrichment courses for each practice area. Relevant clinics and field placement opportunities in these practice areas are also listed here.
You can use these curriculum guides to chart your path in one or more practice areas. Additional information about bar-tested subjects and their courses are provided under the Bar Readiness page.
