Health Law and Policy

The Health Law & Policy Program at the Southern Illinois University School of Law was developed in the early 1980s to advance education and research regarding critical issues in health law and public policy, and medical ethics.

The purpose of the SIU Health Law and Policy Program is to enhance legal education in the rapidly evolving field of health law, focusing on research dissemination, student leadership, scholarship, and interdisciplinary community service. The Program supports an extensive array of opportunities for students in health law education.

Southern Illinois University prides itself on being a collaborative, tight-knit community that allows you to thrive. Through relationships, experiences, and connections, the School of Law opens doors so you can navigate a career on your terms.

Southern Illinois University School of Law, the only public law school in the region, offers a tuition rate among the lowest in the country. Also, over 90% of our students are awarded a scholarship at the time of admission.

Not from Illinois? Non-residents will receive a tuition scholarship to offset the out-of-state tuition difference.
