School of Law

Empowered to Lead. Prepared for What's Next.

A Duquesne University legal education offers a special emphasis on justice and service. Our School of Law is guided by the Spiritan mission of dignity, respect, and grace for every person. 

We empower our students and prepare them for what’s next—in leadership, service, and their careers. Combining our mission with a focus on the future is the priority of our student-centric Vision Fund that focuses on: 

  • Developing Collaborative and Interdisciplinary Learning Opportunities
  • Teaching Principles of Leadership
  • Fostering Student Well-Being

Your gifts during the 2022 Duquesne Day of Giving strengthen this Vision Fund and the commitment we make to our students to provide them with the knowledge and skills to reach their bigger goals. Your generous donations to our School of Law elevate our existing programs, such as our bar preparation and evening division, while creating new opportunities for our students.

Please donate to The Vision Fund on 2.9.22

Please consider the impact Duquesne Law had made on you when deciding to donate to the 2022 Vision Fund. Our School of Law is grateful for any contribution you make to allow us to continue providing a high caliber legal education to our law students and future alumni.
