Message From the Program Coordinator
Welcome to the Paralegal Studies Program.
Our program is designed to teach students
the skills necessary to pursue a challenging career as a paralegal, also known as a legal
assistant.
Students in our program have the option of choosing one of four concentrations: real estate, corporate and banking, litigation, and general practice. In addition, qualified students may participate in intern and co-op programs where their skills can be applied in a work setting.
We offer an Associate of Applied Science degree. Our graduates may transfer to the University of Memphis under an articulation agreement and complete a four year degree in Paralegal Studies in the University College.
Whether you are seeking the knowledge and skills necessary for immediate employment in the field, a solid foundation for your four year degree, or just a few courses to improve the skills you have already, our program will meet your needs. Come browse our site and find your place in the field of Paralegal Studies!
