Dual Degree & Certificate Programs

Being part of a world-class university means you can combine your legal education with other studies, leading to both a Juris Doctor (J.D.) and a second graduate degree.

We offer dual degree and certificate programs with graduate departments and professional schools at the University. You must apply separately to - and be admitted by - each of the programs. Most programs can be completed in four years; the exception is the J.D./M.D., which takes six years to complete.

Dual degrees are offered in the following areas:

• J.D./M.B.A. (Management)
• J.D./M.A. (Art History and Museum Studies)
• J.D./M.A. (Legal History)
• J.D./M.A. (Political Science)
• J.D./M.S. (Biochemistry)
• J.D./M.A. (Bioethics)
• J.D./M.S.S.A. (Social Work)
• J.D./CNM (Certificate of Nonprofit Management)
• J.D./M.D. (Medicine)
• J.D./M.P.H. (Public Health)

In some cases, study may begin in either program. Admission materials for the second degree program may be obtained by contacting the Dual-degree Program offices on our contacts page.
