Faculty
Students are the first priority of Cincinnati Law faculty. They are passionate about teaching law and bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the classroom. Faculty make it a point to get to know their students and are readily accessible to answer questions or discuss career plans.
Our law school faculty also are distinguished scholars, consistently recognized for the quality of their scholarship. Nationally and internationally renowned legal experts in a wide variety of disciplines, their research on cutting-edge legal issues of the day enrich the law school curriculum.
UC Law's core faculty is complemented by a remarkable adjunct law faculty – respected practitioners and judges – who bring firsthand real-world experiences to the classroom and enhance the purpose and relevance of a Cincinnati legal education.
