Many of the remaining students have had substantial work experience in fields including health care, banking, engineering, journalism, accounting, and work in law firms. All of these add to the richness of the law school experience at Tulane. Computer technology is also being used in many of our classes, with electronic casebooks and electronic discussion groups supplementing traditional classroom interaction. Undergraduate majors are also diverse, as shown in the chart to the left. The more fields represented in the student body, the more interesting the law school experience.
