Mock Trial Budget

FY2014 (July 1, 2013 - June 30, 2014)

Mock Trial gives undergraduate students an opportunity to learn first hand about the work of trial attorneys, understand the judicial system, develop critical and analytical thinking skills, and enhance communication skills that are applicable not only to the field of law, but to almost every other profession today. Even if you don't want to be an attorney, Mock Trial is excellent practice for developing public speaking and argument skills and learning to work as a team. We have a lot of fun working together, and we'd love to hear if you're interested. CMU Mock Trial is the only competitive speech program at Carnegie Mellon University. Interested in joining CMU Mock Trial? Please send us an email <mt@andrew.cmu.edu> or simply drop by our next meeting!
