Degrees and Curriculum
The School of Law offers the Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree along with Master of Laws (LL.M.) and Ph.D. degrees.
J.D. students can also choose from one of six specializations: Asian Law, Dispute Resolution, Environmental Law, Health Law, Intellectual Property, and International and Comparative Law. The Law School also offers the opportunity to undertake a concurrent degree program, such as a J.D./Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.) dual degree.
Students who already hold J.D. degrees attend the School of Law to seek an LL.M. degree in one of the school's programs: Intellectual Property Law and Policy, Taxation, Health Law, Asian and Comparative Law, or Law of Sustainable International Development. A Ph.D. degree is also available in Asian and Comparative Law.

Famous quotes containing the words degrees and/or curriculum:
“When a thought of Plato becomes a thought to me,—when a truth that fired the soul of Pindar fires mine, time is no more. When I feel that we two meet in a perception, that our two souls are tinged with the same hue, and do as it were run into one, why should I measure degrees of latitude, why should I count Egyptian years?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
