The Alberta government has introduced a new scholarship to honour outstanding public law students, the Excellence in Public Law Scholarship.
This scholarship will award $10,000 each to two outstanding upper-year law students—one from the University of Alberta and the other from the University of Calgary.
“The study and practice of public law is fundamental to maintaining a society grounded in the rule of law. The Excellence in Public Law Scholarship will support outstanding students in this field and encourage more to pursue careers in public law,” said Mick Amery, Minister of Justice and Attorney General.
Officials say public law includes areas such as constitutional law, administrative law and statutory interpretation and extends to fields like corporate, environmental, family, health, immigration and tax law.
