Business Law graduate certificate available as part of LL.M. or separately

The University of Southern California Gould School of Law has announced it will begin specialized online Master of Laws (LL.M.) program designed for international students this Fall. The online LL.M. will include the option of earning an online graduate certificate in Business Law.

The graduate certificate is also available to US and international lawyers apart from the LL.M degree.

“Classes offered online mirror those taught in the residential program," said USC Gould Dean Robert K. Rasmussen. "The program will also offer workshops on writing resumes, interviewing skills, and networking practice – all online.”

According to the law school, after completing the LL.M. bar track, students will have taken the courses necessary to meet the qualifications to sit for the California Bar exam.

The LL.M. program online can be completed in as few as 12 months without any on-campus requirements. Online students may attend an optional four-week, on-campus Summer Law and English program.

For more information, please visit the USC Online LL.M. program website, or the school's full LLM GUIDE directory profile.
