Pre-Law Programs at Miami University
Departmental Liaisons
In addition to the advising offered by the Pre-Law Director, you should also seek advice regarding your specific academic program or major. Departmental Liaisons serve as the initial point of contact for pre-law students within their major. They can provide support and advice as you: select major courses and electives, secure letters of recommendation from faculty within your discipline, and consider alternative careers or graduate school options within their major.
