Asian and Comparative Law for JD Students

J.D. students at the Law School uniquely benefit by the opportunity to learn alongside 100 or more outstanding lawyers, judges and prosecutors from around the world. If you choose to study Asian and Comparative Law as part of your J.D. program, you will work with senior colleagues from Asia, Europe, Australasia and beyond.

There are several ways to enrich a J.D. degree with Asian and Comparative law:

• Incorporate one or more Asian and Comparative law courses into a regular J.D. program;
• Pursue a J.D. concentration track in Asian Law or in International and Comparative Law and have this noted on your transcript;
• Enroll concurrently in the J.D./LL.M. in Asian and Comparative Law (Asian language competence is a pre-requisite);
• Enroll concurrently in the J.D. program and in an M.A. in Asian Studies (in the Jackson School of International Studies) or for an MBA in the Business School or a Certificate of International Development in the Evans School of Public Affairs concurrently and take Asian or comparative law courses as part of the J.D. program
