Grasping business fundamentals proves highly beneficial across various legal fields. The J.D./M.B.A. dual-degree program merges management training and business acumen from an M.B.A. with legal education, developing distinctive, in-demand capabilities for tomorrow's economic landscape.
This curriculum holds special relevance for aspiring attorneys planning to engage in business-related activities and commercial dealings. The M.B.A.'s emphasis on professional focus areas, paired with commerce-focused legal coursework, strengthens an attorney's capacity to operate successfully within corporate and commercial environments.
Students pursuing the combined J.D./M.B.A. program can earn both degrees - a J.D. from Chicago-Kent College of Law and an M.B.A. from Stuart School of Business - in about three and a half to four years as full-time students or five years through part-time study.
