专业概况
在这里学什么?
The LL.M. degree is designed to deliver in-depth knowledge in a specific area, such as
- American Law for Foreign Lawyers
- Corporate and Commercial Law
- Health Law, Policy, and Bioethics
- Intellectual Property Law
- International and Comparative Law
- International Human Rights Law
We have found that students often enter the program unsure of which track is best for them, so you will be admitted into the LL.M. program and not a specific track of study. When you arrive for orientation, you will have the chance to talk with faculty, staff, and students about the LL.M. program and the different tracks, and then your academic advisor will help you to decide which track best fits your career goals and interests.
The LL.M. program has several purposes:
It gives currently practicing U.S. lawyers a place to hone their skills and deepen their knowledge base on a specific subject.
It helps licensed lawyers from other countries get to know American law in preparation for passing the Bar in the United States.
It provides a focused curriculum for legal scholars who are interested in advancing their knowledge in a specific area of law in order to prepare for the S.J.D./Ph.D. in law and an academic career.
As an LL.M. student, you’ll complete a 24-credit program. If you attend on a full-time basis, you can complete your degree in a single year. Foreign students, note that to satisfy visa regulations, you must finish within eighteen months.
The LL.M. program includes:
- Area-specific coursework with a wide range of elective options
- Externships, clinical courses, or pro bono legal service and optional practical training (OPT) opportunities
- A research component and Master's thesis (optional for the American Law for Foreign Lawyers track)
- Advanced English as a Second Language (ESL) instruction (the law school will provide a 50% scholarship for these courses, if required)
- The opportunity to publish your thesis, if in a thesis track, on the Scholar Works network at Indiana University. This network makes your research available to lawyers and legal scholars worldwide.
