Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law

The mission of the Drexel University Thomas R. Kline School of Law is to educate students to become knowledgeable, skilled and engaged lawyers. Our graduates have a deep understanding of the context of legal practice in a technologically sophisticated, increasingly specialized profession, and have developed the knowledge and skills needed for successful practice through academic and practice-based education. The Kline School of Law fosters an environment where faculty and students critically examine and seek to improve the law and legal systems, the legal profession and legal education. Drexel University's Kline School of Law offers a curriculum built upon the principle that students learn best when hands-on experience is part of their education. Philadelphia, which boasts one of America's largest legal communities and a host of cultural attractions, has much to offer law students and young lawyers. Located in the thriving University City neighborhood, The Kline School of Law is the perfect place to learn by doing. The Kline School of Law is one of just two law schools in the nation offering co-op education—an approach that employers recognize produces outstanding, practice-ready lawyers.
