Faculty Directory

Your faculty at Cooley Law School bring real-world experience into the classroom, making learning robust and relevant. Cooley professors bring an average of over 11 years of practice experience before ever joining the faculty at Cooley, many in high-profile positions. Learn from a distinguished group of professors and emeritus faculty at Cooley Law School. You could learn criminal law from a professor who was a prosecutor for more than 20 years and learn about constitutional law from a Brigadier General and U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary for Homeland Defense Strategy. These are just two examples of the caliber of professors from which you’ll learn the law. The real-world experience of our faculty complements the theoretical foundation of our proven modern teaching methods. As mentors, they combine their experience practicing law with a love of teaching, providing individualized support and continuous feedback to each student.
