Georgetown University Law School unveils its take on global expansion as it prepares for the opening of the Centre for Transnational Legal Studies in London. Richard Lloyd reports
Alexander Aleinikoff, dean of the Georgetown University Law Centre, likes to boast that by this autumn he will have the equivalent of nine law schools on five continents. His claim might be a little outlandish, but Aleinikoff is enthused by a new programme that is aimed at better preparing law students to practise in a global legal market. Aleinikoff believes it is a unique development in legal education so perhaps a little hyperbole can be forgiven.
