Where Leaders Are Made: The Campaign for UNB Law

Over the next decade, UNB Law will affirm its place as one of Canada’s top law schools, ensuring that it continues to produce outstanding leaders who will confront society’s toughest challenges. Building on the strength of our core curriculum and intimate atmosphere, we will become Canada’s leader in experiential learning.

Our new downtown location — the fully renovated Fredericton Justice Building — will offer an unparalleled learning experience that seamlessly integrates classroom and community like nowhere else.

The Where Leaders Are Made campaign will generate funds for four strategic pillars:

  • Student Support: Needs-based scholarships to ensure every qualified student has access to a UNB Law legal education.
  • Classroom Experience: Upgrading learning spaces with modern, accessible classrooms and cutting-edge technology.
  • Experiential Learning: Expanding hands-on training through the Legal Clinic, internships, and the Legal Observatory.
  • Research Addressing Societal Challenges: Promoting and expanding interdisciplinary research and introducing a Master of Studies in Law degree.

In pursuing our goals, we are emphasizing reconciliation, equity, diversity and inclusion. These principles reflect our core values of caring for our students and fostering a collegial learning and working environment.

Above all, they further our obligation as a law school to serve the public interest and promote confidence in the administration of justice.

With your support, we will transform UNB Law and shape the future of legal education in Canada.
