The Houston Journal of International Law is a student organization at the University of Houston Law Center that publishes three high quality issues each year. The Journal assembles articles written by practicing professionals, educators, and students on a broad range of topics in international and comparative law, to include international business, finance, torts, crime, and human rights. HJIL not only serves the local, national, and international legal communities through its publications, but also provides its members with an opportunity to perfect their research, writing, and organizational skills.

The Journal is a partially endowed publication in its twenty-seventh year of publication. The Journal's subscription base covers six continents and is found in libraries in the United States, Mexico, Canada, Central and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. The Journal is also received by the Supreme Court and many circuit court libraries. An active advisory board made up of noted professionals, judges, and educators provides immeasurable support for the Journal.
