Constitutional studies offers a distinctive academic program that integrates these interests into a cohesive curriculum. The program mandates coursework across four key domains: Ancient Foundations of Law, Liberty, and Self-Government; Philosophical Underpinnings of the American Constitution; The American Founding Era; and Constitutional Influence in Contemporary Society. Students can select from a variety of engaging campus courses to meet these requirements. A unique feature allows undergraduates to enroll in classes taught by OU College of Law professors. Among leading universities, OU stands out for offering undergraduate constitutional specialization. The curriculum cultivates essential skills—critical thinking, compelling writing, effective oration—valuable across all professions. While excellent pre-law preparation, constitutional studies equally serves those dedicated to engaged citizenship. The minor particularly enhances pre-professional degree programs.
