“We built the U.S. Law LLM online program to meet the needs of working, foreign-trained lawyers who cannot leave their jobs, families, and home countries to study in the U.S. but who want to further their careers by gaining competence in U.S. law. We designed a thorough curriculum, and paired it with excellent faculty and a flexible schedule that will allow students to pursue their career goals.”
