in law, and various joint programs. Some offer their programs
in English only, others in French only, while others offer
partially or fully bilingual programs. To learn more about

Twenty-one of the law schools and departments in Canada offer a professional degree in one or both of Canada's two systems of law. These systems are the "Common Law" derived from the British legal system and the "Civil Law" inspired from French law. Common Law is the system of law in place in all of Canada's provinces and territories other than Quebec. Civil Law regulates the private law of Quebec.
