News & events from around the faculty
UNB Law is continuing to renew its full-time faculty complement, welcoming three new full-time faculty members: Benjamin Perryman, who joined UNB this past January, Jason MacLean, who joins UNB in July 2020, and Sarah-jane Nussbaum, who starts in July 2021.
Professor Kerri Froc has received the 2019-2020 UNB Law Teaching Excellence Award. This designation was based on her deep engagement with participatory learning, her consistent effort at trying new pedagogical approaches and soliciting feedback on how they work, and the strong endorsements she received from students across all three years of the JD program.
Peter Sankoff’s 100 Interns program is providing some relief for students through a series of paid internships in constitutional, criminal or animal law.
We are pleased to announce that Michael Marin has been named acting dean of UNB Law. Mike succeeds John Kleefeld, who has served as dean since 2017, and who will continue as a faculty member.
The first-year mooting program is a key component of UNB Law’s foundational Legal Research and Advocacy course. For many students, this is their first taste of the courtroom.
