The posting

UC Law SF (formerly UC Hastings) was founded in 1878 as the law department of the University of California and was the first law school in California. Over the years, it has built a legacy and reputation of being a preeminent institution comprised of renowned faculty committed to the study of legal theory and research, preparing students for careers in the judicial system, public service, and industry.

The College is redefining legal education through an experiential, interdisciplinary, and international approach to the law. By integrating rigorous academics with hands-on practice, the College is preparing its graduates to tackle modern legal challenges.

LexLab is the law school’s Technology Law and Lawyering center. LexLab connects students, founders, lawyers, faculty, alumni, industry leaders, and technologists who are building new tools and new approaches to legal work. LexLab creates programs that help students develop the skills, fluency, and judgment this new era demands, while giving the broader community a serious place to engage with innovation, ethics, AI, and the future of the profession. During the 2025-26 academic year, LexLab hosted 40 events that brought more than 100 speakers to our community. LexLab also launched a Law & AI Certificate (LAIC) executive education program that gained recognition as a premier educational resource for professionals looking to level up their AI skills for the legal industry. Additionally, LexLab piloted a semester-long workshop series to train current students to become AI-enabled lawyers.
