Did we move up?

Overall, yes, from 68 to 63.

We lost ground in a few specialty areas (we had been top 10 in IP law, for example).

While we are at it, LL.M guide gave our LL.M programs high marks.

Quote: The University of Houston Law Center was named a top 10 best budget school in the U.S. for an LL.M., and in the top 10 for energy law, global law and health/medical law LL.M. offerings by the LLM GUIDE for its Top 10 Lists by Specialty for 2025.

I can say as a tax attorney, that UH’s Tax LLM program is highly regarded.
