Allard Law has been one of the leaders in graduate legal education in Canada. Since the launch of the first LLM program at UBC five decades ago, our graduate students have made important contributions to our research community and to the development of law in Canada and around the world. Our research and professional programs connect scholarship and the expertise of our faculty with some of the finest young lawyers and scholars from Canada. They work together to enhance public understanding of the law, and to initiate important legal reforms in Canada and other parts of the world.

The research section of our website presents the independent research projects of our current graduate students and alumni, celebrates their awards and publications, and shares their stories about their professional development and the impact their work has made locally and internationally. These pages provide you with an insight into the future of law as an academic discipline; they are about advancing the state of legal knowledge and the promise of legal, political and social change.
