About
Adjunct Faculty
Touro's adjunct faculty of more than 50 includes distinguished judges, senior partners of major law firms, veteran public officials, and attorneys expert in cutting-edge practice areas—all of whom bring an exceptional degree of real-world knowledge to the Law Center's programs.
Touro places a strong emphasis on collaborative learning. Like the full-time faculty, adjunct professors are highly accessible to and closely involved with the students they teach, taking an active role in the learning process, through clinics, externships, and other programs.
