Penn State Law is at the forefront of the legal-tech movement, with an innovative lab that teaches law students how technology is changing legal practice, and advanced audiovisual telecommunications tools to allow for distance learning.
Drawing on Penn State’s extensive strengths in cyber, information sciences, and technological advancement, Penn State Law’s Legal-Tech Virtual Lab trains law students in groundbreaking technologies being implemented in today’s legal practice, while exploring the legal questions surrounding emerging technologies in society.
Working with leading legal-tech companies, law firms, and other corporate partners, the lab offers Penn State Law students hands-on experience in emerging legal technology, such as AI-powered legal research and contract drafting tools. It also helps students assess and develop their basic technology skills and learn to use client management systems and eDiscovery tools. The lab prepares our law students to lead by providing them with practical experience that sets them apart in the eyes of employers and enhances their ability to thrive in a rapidly changing practice environment.
