Have you ever sat in a law school class, listening to your professor, and thought, “I’d really like to do that”? Cornell Law School’s Academic Placement Committee has created materials to help you think about whether law school teaching is right for you:

• The Careers in Legal Academia Handbook provides an overview of doctrinal, clinical, legal research & writing, and adjunct teaching options, as well as discussions of the hiring process for each pathway.
• Biographies/Advice: Cornell Law graduates who teach in law schools share their career paths in these in-depth biographies to guide and inspire prospective law teachers.
