Department of Law

Programme Characteristics
Shih Hsin University's School of Law is distinguished by its commitment to delivering a robust legal education. From the outset, students are grounded in essential legal principles, with small class sizes ensuring personalised attention and a high standard of learning. The curriculum strikes an effective balance between theory and practice, offering a wide array of elective courses tailored to diverse interests. Advanced, specialized courses develop deeper into the law, with practitioners and guest lecturers frequently sharing insights on current trends in the field. Beyond legal theory, the programme also emphasises the importance of language proficiency, with students' skills rigorously assessed. To further bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world experience, students are actively engaged in moot court competitions, legal clinics, and clerkships, gaining invaluable exposure to the practical side of the law.
