The law school On June 27, 1959, an
institution for the teaching of law was created in
Rosario, as a result of the demands made by the law students from Rosario who had to travel daily to
Santa Fe, located 170 km to the north, in order to attend classes. This institution was part of the
National University of the Littoral, which is based in the city of
Santa Fe. On February 15, 1967, Resolution Nº 75 was passed by Dr. Carlos María Gelly y Obes, the national Education Minister, by which the
"institution for the teaching of law" became the Law School. Nevertheless, it was still part of
Santa Fe's National University of the Littoral. The
Universidad Nacional de Rosario (UNR) was created by
law N° 17.987, passed on November 29, 1968, and began operating on December 16 of the same year. Shortly after, on March 15, 1969, the National Government passed
decree N° 1528, creating the School of Law and Political Sciences of Rosario and incorporating it into the
Universidad Nacional de Rosario (UNR) instead of
Santa Fe's Universidad Nacional del Litoral. Students of political sciences and of law attended classes together until 1974, when the students of political sciences were given their own building. Since then, the law school has been called the Law School of Rosario. == Programs ==
