About the Haifa Summer Law Institute About the Haifa Summer Law Institute For students attending law school in the United States and seeking an enlightening summer educational experience abroad, no country can offer more richness of history, natural beauty, and cultural diversity than Israel. Likewise, few locations in Israel present the blend of academic excellence, cultural integration, and nature's magnificence more than the Mediterranean port city of Haifa. The University of Haifa, the most racially and ethnically diverse institution of higher learning in the Middle East, is the site of an ABA approved summer program commencing in July 2000. Jointly sponsored by the law schools of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, the University of Baltimore, and the University of Haifa, the program is designed especially for American law students who have completed at least their first year of study. The campus is at the peak of Mount Carmel, which rises dramatically from the beaches of the blue Mediterranean, and is within easy access to many historic sites and recreational areas.
Public transportation is reliable and inexpensive.
The faculty will be law professors from the three participating universities. At least one additional trip will be offered to program participants, who will also have ample time to explore the rich religious and cultural history of Jerusalem, and experience its special beauty and spirituality.
