Center for Constitutional Studies
The Center for Constitutional Studies at Utah Valley University was established in September, 2011. The Center is a nonpartisan academic institute that promotes the instruction, study, and research of constitutionalism. It employs a multidisciplinary approach to effectively equip a new generation of citizens and leaders with a broad understanding of political thought and economic and political practices critical to the perpetuation of constitutional government, ordered liberty, and the rule of law.

Our goal at the Center is to increase constitutional literacy. Over the years, we have hosted many events featuring distinguished scholars and public servants. Videos of most of our guests' talks are available in the "Past Events" page.
