The Role of AI in Legal Education – Preparing the Next Generation of Lawyers

Westminster Law School is hosting a one-day hybrid symposium exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping legal education and the skills graduates will need in the years ahead. The event will bring together academics, legal professionals, students, and industry stakeholders, and will feature keynote addresses, research presentations, and an interactive roundtable.

Date: Thursday 11 September
Format: Hybrid (on-campus and online)
Host: Westminster Law School – 4–12 Little Titchfield Street, London W1W 7BY

The symposium aims to support law schools in rethinking how they integrate legal tech and AI literacy into their degree programmes, ensuring all students, regardless of background, are equipped not only for academic success but also for professional excellence in a rapidly changing legal landscape.

What to expect:

  • Teaching & learning with AI: opportunities, challenges, and effective practice
  • Assessment & integrity: implications for curriculum and quality
  • Skills for future lawyers: how AI is changing graduate attributes and career paths

The symposium is generously funded by a grant from the Association of Law Teachers and The Law Teacher, and co-sponsored by Westminster Law School.
