Students will identify public or private sector challenges (with a nexus to the legal profession), interview key stakeholders, and work in teams to develop real-world solutions to those challenges. The course will be taught similarly to a business school entrepreneurship course and will include lectures on topics such as public speaking, time management, behavioral science, and design thinking.
The Leadership Laboratory will see students research issues/challenges in the law that they are passionate about addressing and exploring/experimenting leadership opportunities (e.g., creating a non-profit or startup, drafting model legislation, running for office). Students who are interested in the class should send a short (approximately 300 words) statement of interest to asterling@law.berkeley.edu.
J.D. applications will be due on April 8th. Students will be notified by April 12th if they have been admitted to the course. LLM applications will be due July 15th, with a response by August 1st. After these deadlines pass, late applications will be considered on a rolling basis as space permits.
