Our JD/MBA program combines legal and business education for full-time students pursuing careers at the intersection of law and commerce. Aspiring professionals understand the growing need for interdisciplinary expertise in today's competitive global economy, where both business leaders and legal practitioners must navigate increasingly complex international regulations. This distinctive program equips students with the essential tools to address the expanding legal challenges facing U.S. corporations in global markets. Offered collaboratively by Pepperdine's Caruso School of Law and Graziadio Business School, the accelerated four-year curriculum condenses what would typically require five years of study, allowing students to start their coursework at either institution.
This combined JD/MBA program comprises 129 credit hours: 47 in business subjects and 82 in legal studies. Candidates must apply and gain acceptance to both the Graziadio Business School and Caruso School of Law independently, as dual admission is mandatory for participation in this joint degree opportunity.
