Juris Doctor and Master in Public Administration in International Development in Cambridge United States | Harvard University

Harvard Law School (HLS) and Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) provide a combined degree program integrating legal studies with government. This HLS/HKS collaborative initiative fosters students pursuing cross-disciplinary training in governance, public policy, and jurisprudence, equipping them for influential roles in civic leadership. Participants can simultaneously earn a Juris Doctor from HLS and either a Master in Public Policy (MPP) or a Master in Public Administration in International Development (MPA/ID) from HKS. A joint faculty committee from both institutions supervises the program, determining its framework, prerequisites, and providing guidance to enrolled students. This committee holds authority to adjust program requirements when necessary, provided such modifications align with existing HLS and HKS regulations.
