Online Bachelor of Science in Law and Paralegal Studies
A bachelor’s degree in law and paralegal studies opens many doors for many career opportunities, including, but not limited to, a paralegal — one of the lawyer’s most valuable resources. The University of Cincinnati’s online Bachelor of Science in Law and Paralegal Studies program provides students with the in-demand skills needed to increase responsibility and earnings as they start or advance their legal career. This program is 100% online with no campus visits required and is approved by the American Bar Association (ABA).
A Strong Career Outlook
The paralegal field is one of the fastest-growing job markets, with lawyers depending more and more on paralegals as US law becomes more complex — especially those with higher education experience. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, paralegal employment is higher than average, with a projected growth rate of 14% through 2031.
What is a Paralegal?
Paralegals perform substantive behind-the-scenes legal work that enables the law and court systems to make positive impacts on their communities. Job duties vary, as there is a wide range of paralegal careers to pursue—many paralegals support lawyers by assisting with trial preparation, drafting legal documents, conducting research, and client communication. Most paralegals work in law firms, but paralegal skills are also coveted by government agencies, businesses, and non-profit organizations.

- American Bar Association-approved.
