The core curriculum provides a solid foundation in the fundamentals of substantive tax law and basic tax research and writing skills, while keeping the highest standards of professional responsibility in focus. A wide range of elective courses allows each student to fully prepare for a capstone research and writing seminar in the student’s selected area of concentration. Capstone seminars provide an opportunity to tackle sophisticated problems at the forefront of current tax practice under the guidance of practicing lawyers who are leaders in the field.
