History
East China University of Political Science and Law was founded in 1952. It is one of he few higher education institutions in China specializing in legal education. In the field of legal education, ECUPL enjoys unparalleled influence and prestige in Shanghai and greater East China, which is China's most developed geographical division. ECUPL's alumni are found in virtually every legal profession and institution in East China, such as law firms, governmental agencies, courts, and educational institutions. Its influence, however, waned somewhat in recent years due to competition from rival universities in the area, many of which realized the importance of legal education and began to heavily subsidize their law faculty.
