The online LLM program offers students an opportunity to receive specialized legal training beyond the training they have already received in a JD program or an equivalent law degree program outside the United States. The elective courses in the program will provide insight into legal issues in areas such as intellectual property, privacy, and business. Students interested in taking a bar exam will be able to strengthen their foundational knowledge of U.S. law by taking courses with content tested on bar examinations. The asynchronous online format affords flexibility with respect to the times and location at which students complete their work.
