Career Placement

Saint Louis University School of Law graduates carry on the traditions and values they learned while students here. A thorough understanding of and passion for the law combined with the highest ethical standards make our graduates compassionate, effective advocates of those they serve.

The bond between alumni and the School of Law community remains long after graduation, and alumni demonstrate their loyalty by maintaining their connection to the School of Law for the benefit of current students. They regularly return to talk to law students during networking events through student organizations and various programs, such as the Food for Thought program, which is an in-depth, question-and-answer lunch where alumni offer their insights into a specific practice area of the law.

Our alumni are entrepreneurs, prosecutors, public defenders, judges, professors and corporate executives. And those alumni who are graduates of the dual degree programs find that even more opportunities await them in business, government agencies and health care organizations.
