Located on the beautiful coast of the Atlantic Ocean in Portland, Maine, Maine Law provides students with access to a world-class faculty and a close-knit academic environment. The law school emphasizes hands-on learning, public service, and innovative approaches to legal education. Maine Law’s Signature Programs include: Environmental & Oceans Law, Privacy Law, Public Interest and Social Justice Law, and Business and Transactional Law. Maine Law has the only Arctic law program in the country. This interdisciplinary program engages institutions in the US and abroad, notably the Climate Change Institute (CCI) of the University of Maine. Alaskan residents receive in-state tuition at Maine Law.
Through its 3+3 partnership program with UAF, students have the opportunity to complete both their undergraduate and law degrees in six years—three years at UAF and three years at Maine Law.
