The degree provides students interested in law at a graduate level with an understanding of the American legal system, legal theories, legal analysis, legal research and legal writing. Students use this knowledge to pursue career opportunities in law, government or business, as well as career enhancement in law-related fields and as a background for further graduate work in law or related fields.
