DRT members gain experience across a variety of practice areas by interviewing and counseling clients, and by negotiating, mediating, and arbitrating common disputes.

Students may earn academic credit through membership, which requires active involvement in competitions, trainings, and mooting of fellow teammates. Students gain membership to the team by successfully competing in the Intramural Negotiation Competition in the spring semester.

The DRT’s Executive Board and Faculty Advisors oversee the team’s activities and contribute to its growing success by strategizing and mooting for competitions.
