Gaining a deep comprehension of contemporary legal practice requires a solid foundation in its historical roots, encompassing both U.S. legal development and the common law traditions of influential nations like the United Kingdom. The investigative and critical thinking abilities honed by historians prove equally valuable for legal professionals. Syracuse University offers a combined J.D./Master of Arts in History program through collaboration with the Maxwell School's History Department. This history M.A. program aims to cultivate analytical methods, expand expertise in the student's chosen field, and provide tailored research opportunities in consultation with faculty advisors.
