Every Spartan lawyer deserves an exceptional legal education.
That’s what motivates the leadership team at MSU College of Law, a team of national leaders in higher education, legal practice, and administration.
Led by Dean Michael Sant’Ambrogio, the team applies decades of combined experience to create an environment that empowers opportunity. Full integration into Michigan State University was completed in August 2020 and ensures MSU Law leadership is an important part of a strong community of faculty-scholars, that its students have every opportunity afforded a world-renown research institution, and its graduates join a global network of alumni and friends.
I am honored to serve the College of Law and to work with our dedicated faculty and staff to define what it means to be a Big Ten, land-grant college serving the diverse communities of Michigan and beyond. I look forward to implementing our strategic plan and building a community with a strong culture of equity, trust, and respect among our faculty, staff, and students. - Michael Sant'Ambrogio, Dean
