School

of Law. Salary, benefits, support for research and other special needs are negotiable and highly competitive.

 

Quinnipiac

University

School

of Law has an extensive and growing health law program. For six years we have offered a health law certificate to our J.D. students who devote 15 credit-hours to health law specialty courses, written work and clinical work; in recent years, nearly 10% of our students have earned that certificate. Next fall we will supplement that J.D. program with an LL.M in health law, and we are expanding our already-impressive cadre of full-time and adjunct health law faculty members. The law school houses a health law journal and a health law clinic, and offers students numerous health-related externships with area providers, insurance companies, and pharmaceutical firms. The law school’s Center for Health Law & Policy sponsors health-related educational efforts and symposia. We also have an active student law-and-medicine society, and send a team to the annual health law moot court competition each year.  In conjunction with Quinnipiac’s

Quinnipiac University has highly respected undergraduate and graduate programs in nursing, physician assistance, physical therapy, pathology, occupational therapy, medical laboratory sciences and health management. Our university library has an excellent collection of health-science and health-management materials.
