Welcome From the Dean
Welcome students, alumni, researchers, and friends of the University of Calgary Faculty of Law. The freshly-renovated Faculty,housed in Murray Fraser Hall, is one of the most central and technologically-sound buildings on campus. The stunning building renovations, increased student enrolment, expanded curriculum, and addition of new faculty members were all made possible via a realization of goals set in our 2003-2008 Strategic Plan. The Faculty owes much of its success to the generous donors who raised more than $20 million to make the facility and program upgrades possible. >> more
