ILR Visiting Scholars

The Institute for Legal Research hosts a number of visiting scholars from US and foreign institutions each year, both to participate in Institute-oriented programs and to pursue their own research projects on legal doctrine, theory, and empirical analysis. Past scholars have included professors, government and law professionals, as well as graduate and PhD students working under the supervision of a Berkeley Law faculty member. For a list of past ILR Visiting Scholars, please visit our dedicated webpage.
Japan Federation of Bar Association Visiting Fellows Program
The Institute’s Sho Sato Program in Japanese and US Law established an exchange program in 1999 with the Japan Federation of Bar Associations (JFBA) to give Japanese attorneys engaged in public-interest activities the opportunity to study for a year in Berkeley. The JFBA also has exchange agreements with New York University, the University of Illinois, and the University of Essex. As of 2017, a total of 58 members have studied overseas through this program. To learn more about current and past Sho Sato-JFBA Visiting Scholars hosted at Berkeley Law and their research, please visit our dedicated webpage.
