The practice of law is global. Spend a year abroad and graduate with our JD degree and an LLM degree from one of our three European partner schools.
In addition to traditional semester-long exchange programs, we offer two-semester concurrent degree programs with prestigious universities in England, Spain and France. Through these programs students can earn two degrees - a JD from our law school and LLM from the partner school - in just three years, for just the price of the JD. Students spend their 1L and 2L years at our law school and then their third year at the foreign partner school. Students who attend Middlesex University (London) through this program can earn their LLM in International Law or Human Rights Law; Students who attend Comillas Pontifica University (Madrid) or Université Paris-Dauphine can earn their LLM in International and European Business Law. Courses are in English.
"I graduated from CWRU School of Law (class of 2019), where in three years I was able to obtain both a JD and a Masters degree in International and European Business Law at the University of Paris- Dauphine. The knowledge, experience and certification offered through the concurrent degree played a significant role in my career, allowing me to now work abroad as a licensed US attorney in an international law firm. I am grateful that CWRU provided such an opportunity during my legal studies."
