DARTMOUTH – Ten students from UMass School of Law will be in Portugal from May 17 to 31 as part of a new study abroad program created in partnership with the Católica Global School of Law of Lisbon. We’ll do our best to make sure this year is a complete success.”How did the UMass School of Law study abroad program in Portugal come about? UMass Law’s study abroad program in Portugal is the brainchild of Dean Panarella, who is completing his first year in Dartmouth. Given that many UMass Law students and supporters are Portuguese or of Portuguese descendent, he found it odd that the school had an exchange program with Ireland but nothing with Portugal. That’s when Massachusetts Senator Michael Rodrigues – who has been a great supporter of UMass Law according to Panarella - stepped in.
