What People Are Saying
“The Bar and Mooting Society will play a key role in the mooting programme at City. It will organize various training and mooting events that will provide excellent opportunities for law students to hone their advocacy skills and to network with their peers, City alumni and other practitioners. Staff members will work closely with the Society to ensure the best mooting experience for all students at City Law School.”
— Dr. Tietie Zhang, Mooting Coordinator at City Law School
“The newly established City Law School Bar & Mooting Society have already developed a full programme of events aimed at promoting student engagement in mooting activities. This should attract wider participation in mooting, including from students of diverse backgrounds who may not normally have engaged in mooting competitions. These events will also promote greater networking and student engagement. I wish this new Student Society every success!”
