Designed for students interested in an academic career and for lawyers with an interest in legal theory, the LL.M. in Comparative Legal Thought degree (24 credits) juxtaposes legal thought with philosophy, political science, economics and other disciplines. With a comprehensive range of courses spanning jurisprudence, law and philosophy, critical legal studies, comparative constitutionalism, and law and literature, students and faculty wrestle with some of the most pressing cultural, philosophical and theoretical legal questions of the day.
