The Center TRAINS students and ASSISTS the legal and business COMMUNITIES on issues involving corporate law.

The Center for Corporate Law encourages the development of law students' and the legal and business communities' understanding of the issues involving corporate law. By developing programs to educate and train students, as well as provide assistance to attorneys, the Center positively impacts the legal and business communities-around the tri-state and around the world.

Established in the 1980s, the Center addresses issues of central concern to corporate attorneys, such as the fiduciary duties of managers, the relationship between managers and shareholders, and the relationship of the corporation to society.  Central to its activities is the annual Corporate Law Symposium, which provides an opportunity for scholars, practitioners and law students from across the country to exchange ideas, debate issues, and discuss ongoing research and scholarship on current topics in the field.
