Dean's Fundraising Priorities

Queen's Law School Fund

Undesignated support is important to the Faculty because it allows us to apply your gift where it is needed most. Some examples of past expenditures include attracting internationally recognized visitors and scholars to Queen's Law; supporting student participation in national and international mooting competitions; supporting student internships in public sector and non-profit organizations; encouraging student exchanges and joint programs with foreign law schools; and funding national and international conferences and symposia at Queen's Law.

Centre for Law in the Contemporary Workplace

In November 2010, Queen's Law launched the Centre for Law in the Contemporary Workplace (CLCW). The first of its kind in Canada, the Centre will provide an intellectual home for the Canadian labour and employment law community. The Centre will train the next generation of leading labour and employment law practitioners, teachers and scholars, lead research into emerging trends and problems in workplace-related law, and actively exchange knowledge with labour and employment law stakeholders. The Centre's focal activities will include research, curriculum development, teaching, dialogue and outreach on the role of the law in the contemporary workplace.

Hands-On Learning Fund

Queen’s Law aims to provide students with the opportunity to apply what they are learning in the classroom in a real life setting by providing hands-on, practical experience under the close supervision of expert practitioners. The Hands-On Learning Fund was established to support the functions and operations of the clinical program offerings including Legal Aid, the Business Law Clinic, the Elder Law Clinic,  the Correctional Law Project, and moot programs.
