For more than 30 years, the Maryland Mock Trial program has provided an indelible experience to thousands of UMD students. With your support, we hope to continue Maryland Mock Trial’s tradition of excellence and foster our next generation of Trial Terps.
It is hard to overstate the benefits of intercollegiate mock trial. Many of our alumni describe Maryland Mock Trial as one of the best and most influential experiences at UMD. Students who join Maryland Mock Trial develop skills that are useful in any profession, not just future legal careers. Their experience in Maryland Mock Trial will help them succeed in interviews, professional presentations, client pitches, and any situation that involves presenting information to an audience. Simply put, mock trial provides an invaluable educational and competitive experience for our students.
