The LLM can be completed through coursework, research projects, or a blend of both approaches. This curriculum enables deeper, more complex examination of legal subjects compared to undergraduate studies, featuring both detailed legal analyses and policy-focused courses. Every course incorporates substantial research elements, typically culminating in a 12,500-word research paper for 30-credit classes.
