Boston University leads in professional training through its pioneering academic initiative. This unique interdisciplinary collaboration between the School of Law and the American & New England Studies Program at the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences enables students to earn dual degrees in seven semesters - two fewer than required for separate degree completion.
