Legal Studies
Legal Studies 20 (3 credits)
No prerequisite
Law is the foundation upon which our society is built. Legal Studies courses are a starting point for students to learn the basis for our laws and practical information about them. This course is designed to make students aware of the system that affects so many aspects of our lives. Explore workplace and consumer law in the context of how they are relevant to you and discuss the legal relationship between the government and its citizens. You will also look at the criminal justice system and explore law-related careers. The objective of this course is to change your perspective, to have students make informed decisions and reason logically - not to study legal decisions to prepare you for the courtroom.
May include the following 1-credit courses:
LGS1010 Private Law
LGS1020 Family Law
