Cooley was one of the
first to recognize that research and writing is just
as important as torts, contracts, and property.Cooley students are
required to take six hours of Research & Writing• First-year classes are taught and graded by full-time,
tenure-track professors—with more than 116 years of
teaching experience among them.
• We teach both book
and electronic research, using a problem approach, and we
stress the best use of each.
• Cooley was one of the first law schools to teach legal
drafting—it's been part of our program for 10 years.
Our students draft contracts, releases, and statutes.
• We test what we teach: all Cooley students take
a punctuation test and two research tests.
