Immigration Law

LAW 655 | 2-3 Hours

This is a survey course in Immigration Law, a fascinating, complex area of law that changes rapidly. In this course, we will examine the distinction between citizens and noncitizens, the government’s authority to regulate immigration, the rights of immigrants, the structure of immigration enforcement, family-based immigration, asylum, and the perceived benefits and burdens of immigration. This course does not address business immigration.
