This dual degree program, awarded jointly with the prestigious Maxwell School, provides students with a distinctive chance to merge their hands-on understanding of international relations with a law degree from the College of Law. The MAIR program blends challenging, interdisciplinary studies with practical competencies to prepare graduates for competitive positions worldwide. To complete the program, students must fulfill requirements across five specialized career pathways, demonstrate proficiency in a second language, and undertake a culminating professional project. The accelerated pathway allows completion of both J.D. and MAIR degrees in three years rather than the typical four. Additionally, participants have the option to earn a specialized Certificate in National Security and Counterterrorism Law via the Institute for National Security and Counterterrorism.
