ND Law starting exchange program with Strathmore Law School in Kenya
Notre Dame Law School has added another exchange program opportunity for students and faculty — its first in Africa — with a recent agreement with Strathmore Law School in Nairobi, Kenya.
Spring Break: Home and Abroad
Notre Dame Law students spent their 2022 mid-semester break contributing to a number of meaningful projects, both in the US and abroad.
Largest in History
Notre Dame Law students are studying abroad with the London Law Program at the highest numbers in the program’s 53-year history.
'An Outstanding Opportunity'
Notre Dame Law School alumna Angie García Atehortúa ’20 LL.M. was awarded a prestigious placement at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands.
London Law Program
Notre Dame Law School established the London Law Program in 1968 to provide students with opportunities to deepen their understanding of the roots of American law, explore international career opportunities, and broaden their perspectives. It is the oldest study-abroad program offered by a U.S. law school and the only year-long overseas program approved by the American Bar Association.
Global Opportunities
Notre Dame Law School is devoted to preparing all students to succeed on their individual career paths, including those who seek opportunities outside the United States. Students in the London Law Program may choose from numerous externships with British law firms, multinational corporations, government offices, and nonprofit organizations. A select number of students may spend a summer in Dublin as part of our Honor Scholars Program. Other opportunities have taken students in recent years to China, Italy, South Korea, and other countries.

Graduate Programs
Lawyers from all over the world come to Notre Dame Law School to further their studies through our LL.M. and J.S.D. programs.

Students may spend time at the main campus in South Bend, Indiana, or at Notre Dame's London campus in the United Kingdom.
