Legal Education – Research Grants

June 2, 2008

The Law School Admission Council Research Grant Program funds empirical research on legal training and legal practice. Topics include the study of precursors to legal training (including demographic variables), all varieties of legal training itself, and the work that lawyers, judges, law teachers, and other legal professionals do after they complete their training.  Although the program welcomes research on a variety of topics, three requests for proposals have been issued in the following areas:

* Research on Pipeline Issues and Access to Law Schools for Minority Populations
* Research on Access to Law School for Students With Disabilities
* Research on Law School Academic Assistance Programs

There are two reviewing cycles each year, with deadlines of Sept. 1 and Feb. 1.  For more details, go here & here.
