Coursework
“One of the real benefits of the concentration is that it allows students to think about what types of coursesthey want to put together in a package that is business law,” Professor Radwan said. “There is a tremendous amount of flexibility. We have a few courses that are required courses, so everyone takes Business Entities, Tax, and Uniform Commercial Code, but then there’s an extensive list of electives so that students can decide even within the broad category of business law where they mo...
Mentorship
The mentorship component of the Business Law concentration is the biggest benefit students get from the program, according to Professor Radwan. “Students could take all of these courses without being in the concentration. To me, the biggest benefit a student gets is they have a faculty member assigned to them as soon as they become a part of the concentration, and that faculty member’s primary job is to mentor students throughout the program, and that mentorship changes. “Over time, we’ll cha...
Pro bono requirement
All J.D. students at Stetson Law are required to complete pro bono hours, but Business Law students are required to do some of them in the concentration.

Professor Andrew Appleby, for example, is Stetson Law’s tax professor and, according to Professor Radwan, inspires interest in tax law even in students who aren’t big fans of math. “Tax might no...
As the Business Law Concentration grows, so does the number of relevant student-led organizations students can join. “One of the things we’re in the process of doing is trying to re-institute the Business Law Society,” said Professor Radwan. “We’d like to see the Business Law Society become an active student organization again in part because it he...
