About Us

The purpose of this organization shall be to provide a chance for those interested in pursuing a legal career and to prepare those for trial etiquette. Illinois Tech as a whole does not have many resources when it comes to the ‘pre-law’ division. The career services doesn’t have any connections or plans for individuals who want to better their applications for law school. Mock Trial is a club that allows students to learn a case given by the American Mock Trial Association and prepare its contents for competitions (or “trials”). At these trials, students compete against other schools and get graded from juries. These juries aren’t ordinary people, but individuals within the legal profession (law students, lawyers, paralegals, etc).

Members Benefits

This club would benefit students of all backgrounds, including those interested in STEM. For pre-law students, participants are able to develop critical skills such as public speaking, analytical thinking, and legal reasoning. These are essential for success in law school and beyond. Engaging in mock trials also provides a practical understanding of courtroom procedures and the legal system, enhancing their academic studies. For non-pre-law students, mock trial cultivates transferable skills like teamwork, persuasive communication, and effective research techniques, which are valuable in any field. Additionally, the experience boosts confidence and equips students with the ability to articulate their thoughts clearly and argue effectively, making them more competitive in the job market and prepared for diverse professional environments.
