The Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University has once again been recognized as one of the top places in the country and the world to study law in the latest edition of the QS World University Rankings by Subject.
The QS rankings, one of the most-watched global rankings of universities by subject area, placed the Schulich School of Law in the top 101-150 globally and fourth in Canada, the highest rankings the law school has achieved in this index since first being included in 2013.
“I was thrilled to learn we had improved our world ranking and are now ranked fourth in the country in the QS World University Subject Rankings,” says Schulich Law Dean Sarah Harding. “Our unique learning environment aims to blend the intimacy of a close-knit community with the impact of a research-driven university. We are proud to once again be included among the world’s first-class institutions.”
Law was tied with Development Studies for the second highest QS-ranked subject of all Dalhousie’s programs.
The 2025 QS ranking includes data from 1,747 universities – out of 5,200 considered in 148 locations – across 55 individual subjects and five broad areas. Rankings are based on analysis of reputation and research output.
