There are two:
- JD/LLM in International & Comparative Law
- JD/LLM in Law & Entrepreneurship
For what it's worth, dual JD/LLM programs are only really worth it for a very narrow range of students. Generally, they make sense for students who are already doing a JD at the school and just want to get a head start on their LLM. That's the case with Duke's comparative law joint program.
Other students who know they want to pursue a technical subject like taxation from the beginning find that the specialized knowledge from an LLM can help a lot.
I suppose that if you're looking for a robust entrepreneurship experience, including a startup immersion experience and an externship with a startup, then the law/entrepreneurship program might be a good fit.
