UDM Employment Success
April 9, 2007

According to recently released employment statistics, there are only two schools in Michigan with more than a 90 percent employment rate, measured nine months after graduation. The two schools are U of M Law and the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law.

UDM's Legal Writing program also has been ranked among the top 20 in the country for three years in a row. This year, UDM also was placed on a Clinical Honor Roll with four other schools for our expanding clinics in Immigration Law, Mediation, Consumer Protection, and others.

UDM's successes in writing, employment placement, and clinical opportunities underscore its unique model of legal education, integrating the realities of practice with into the classroom. This approach was the recent subject of a National Law Journal article about UDM's Law Firm Program. This model of legal education is bringing national firms from around the country to UDM for student interviews.
