From Traditional Advocacy to AI-Powered Impact
Every great lawyer starts as an advocate. Today, advocacy means more than speaking up for what is right, it also means understanding how technology, data, and global communication shape the law. The Advocacy AI Summer School 2026 gives pre-law students a chance to experience this evolution firsthand through a pre-law programme lasting one to nine weeks.
Blending traditional skills with modern innovation
This study abroad pre-law experience allows students to develop traditional legal writing and research skills while also exploring new ways AI can enhance advocacy. You will work on live case studies, collaborate with international peers, and gain insight into the challenges that technology creates for modern law firms and policy organisations.
