Mock Trial Team Support

Mock Trial at UC Davis is nationally recognized as one of the top undergraduate mock trial program in the nation. Its student members and volunteer coaches spend countless hours preparing for national and regional tournaments.

Mock Trial is a competitive activity that provides students with the opportunity to learn about advocacy skills, legal processes, courtroom procedure and techniques. Each year, students receive a hypothetical case and construct both the plaintiff's (or prosecution's) and defendant's side of the case, and compete against other colleges and universities' teams in a simulation of a real-life trial. Mock Trial is a great opportunity for individuals to demonstrate and refine public speaking, analytical, and acting skills.

Private support will help provide the needed financial assistance to meet the program's growing needs.
