Rule of Law Fellowship
Law students from Afghanistan and Ukraine have come to Pitt to help their people and restore their countries. The Fellowship has given them the opportunity to do that.

Personalized Educational Opportunities
While offering three academic pathways, CILE operates holistically to offer a personalized educational opportunity for every student.

Because of our faculty, our curriculum, and our history, CILE alumni stand at the forefront of the global practice of law.
