At the Center for Information Technology and Privacy Law, our core mission is to provide current and future legal practitioners, policy makers and business professionals advanced education and training in information technology and privacy law and policy.
The Center continues The John Marshall Law School's long-standing tradition of being on the cutting edge of the legal profession. With a vibrant curriculum, exceptional teachers, diverse student body and an unparalleled array of programs and activities, the CITPL proudly claims the first and most comprehensive graduate program in information technology and privacy law in the nation.
Our dynamic and up-to-date curriculum provides a solid foundation and specialized knowledge in IT and privacy law and policy for law students, legal practitioners and non-lawyers alike. The substantive scope of our curriculum encompasses the expanse of issues that arise at the convergence of technology and law. In short, we examine the influence of technology on all areas of law and practice from both practical and scholarly perspectives. Unique to the CITPL is our emphasis on privacy-related issues across the curriculum.
The Center offers a Master of Laws (LLM) degree for practicing lawyers, a joint JD/LLM degree for law students, and a Master of Science (MS) degree for non-lawyers. With a flexible year-round course schedule with evening and weekend classes, the degree programs accommodate both full- and part-time students.
Career-enhancing extra-curricular activities include the Center's internationally renowned publication, the John Marshall Journal of Computer and Information Law, the Annual John Marshall Law School International Moot Court Competition in Information Technology and Privacy Law, internships, scholarly research projects, and continuing legal education programs.
