"The Arizona State University Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law launched its online and part-time JD program this month. "By expanding how and where students can earn a JD, we are strengthening the legal profession and helping address critical gaps in legal services nationwide," said Stacy Leeds, the law school's dean, in a Jan. 14 press release. Students from a diverse range of ages and professional experiences come from nearly 20 states, according to the press release."
"The cohort includes military leaders, engineers, first responders, nonprofit executives, educators, health care professionals, small business owners and government workers, along with those in law-adjacent roles. Many aim to work in public service, criminal law, family law, immigration, health law and rural practice-areas with limited access to justice."
"ASU Law launched a comprehensive student support model designed specifically for the online, part-time JD program, allowing around-the-clock academic advising and technical support. Additionally, students in the online program will engage with tools employing artificial intelligence and legal technology, according to the press release, and they can participate in ASU Law's AI and Legal Tech Studio, offering hands-on learning, interdisciplinary collaboration and real-world problem-solving."
