Founded in 1910 and located in Durham, N.C., North Carolina Central University was the nation`s first publicly supported liberal arts college for African-Americans, and it is one of 17 institutions in the University of North Carolina system. With a student population of more than 8,400, NCCU is a comprehensive university offering baccalaureate, master`s, doctoral and professional degree programs. Today, liberal arts remain a signature program at NCCU, joined by five additional areas of academic emphasis: Education, Nursing, Biosciences, Business and Law. Capitalizing on its location in the heart of North Carolina`s Research Triangle, the university is home to two bioscience research institutes. In keeping with its motto of “Truth and Service,” NCCU in 1995 became the first institution in the UNC System to require community service of all students. North Carolina Central University is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award baccalaureate, masters, doctoral and professional degrees.
Harvard Law School is a place for people who love ideas because ideas make a difference in the world; who want to think about the law`s interaction with public policy, business, information and biomedical technologies, and human needs and perceptions; who are fascinated by the power of institutions and rules while mindful of the unintended consequences of policy reforms; and who pursue the legal profession`s service to society. Our 113 full-time professors bring to the School a depth and range of experience unmatched by any other law faculty, and offer more than 300 upper-level classroom and clinical courses—over 100 having 25 or fewer students. Topics range from international legal studies, child advocacy, venture capital and social and economic rights, to the law of Ancient Greece and the law of cyberspace. Pathbreaking scholarship by faculty members influences the regulation of corporate governance and consumer protection, the design of domestic and international finance systems, the drafting of emerging constitutions, and scholarly debates in law and also in economics, history, psychology, literary theory, philosophy, and more. Members of our faculty regularly argue cases before the Supreme Court, testify before Congress, shape governance of the Internet, devise proposals for better regulation of corporate and consumer risks, and advise developing nations on how to create effective legal systems.
