Moot Court is the fastest growing experiential learning activity for undergraduate students today. Over 400 undergraduate teams compete across the United States in moot court. St. Thomas University's Human Rights Program is proud and excited to be able to offer this opportunity, one of the only of its' kind in Canada.



“We’ve built this reputation that St. Thomas is a school that can go and compete with American schools, so I think that’s something we all try to live up to.”

~Jarrod Ryan, BA '19


“It is amazing, rewarding, and humbling to have a bid to nationals. We have put in many hours of work, and to see it pay off is surreal. It’s a culmination of teamwork and mutual support among the whole group.”

~Camille Xavier, BA '19

Launched in 2014 by Dr. Amanda DiPaolo, BA’01 Moot Court has grown into a sought-after and highly successful program. Dr. DiPaolo, Director of the Human Rights program and executive board member of the American Collegiate Moot Court Association, built Moot Court into the fastest growing experiential learning activity for undergraduate students today. St. Thomas is proud to be one of the first Universities in Canada to offer such a program.

It was a record year for Moot Court at St. Thomas University. The team was highly decorated this season at nationals, finishing 9th out of 432 teams that competed across the USA, placed third in the written brief competition, and had four students win speaker awards.

For the first time in the program’s history, six teams qualified for the American Moot Court National Championships—the maximum number of teams any university can send is eight—while a seventh STU team traveled to the championships in Dallas, Texas, as an alternate.

The summer of 2017, STU students became the first-ever Canadian team to win the Nelson Mandela World Human Rights Moot Court Competition. The team of six qualified by submitting a legal brief and two students attended the competition in Geneva. They went head-to-head against Yale, beating them in the first round, and edged Oxford out on points. They mooted against the University of Buenos Aires, winning the final round and finishing #1 out of 38 schools.

As this program grows so does its financial needs. To ensure our students can remain competitive and continue to represent St. Thomas, New Brunswick and Canada on the North American and international stage please donate today.
