LAW GRADUATES and NEW TECHNOLOGY COURSES

Öz

Extent of technological innovation affected the legal profession just like in any other field. Although law is not a trade or technology discipline, it quickly adapts itself to changes in technology through the sectors it provides legal services. Universities try to meet the legal profession’s technology education demands. While every law student is not expected to gain advanced technological skills, he or she still needs to keep up with artificial intelligence, internet law or legal technology. Artificial intelligence (AI) manifests itself as a part of new philosophy of law. Universities that cannot concentrate on technology courses at the undergraduate LLB curriculum, organize some additional private law courses to overcome their existing deficiency. In this article, the importance of legal technologies (LegalTech) and the systems that try to ensure their inclusion in education will be evaluated.
