As the company becomes increasingly regulated, candidates with advanced skills in legal and regulatory analysis as well as regulatory compliance have become very attractive to many employers. While many employers don`t want to hire additional lawyers, they do need employees with demanding, narrowly targeted exposure to laws and regulations. The Master of Juridical Studies (MLS) program is a post-baccalaureate degree designed for individuals to develop and enhance career-related skills through the study of the legal system, legal writing, law, regulation, and policy. Ideal candidates include individuals from other disciplines, professionals who would benefit from targeted legal knowledge (e.g., health, college sports, education, human resources, finance, etc.), individuals seeking career changes, and those with a general interest in the field of law. At the end of each degree program, graduates will understand how the law relates to and influences their respective areas of interest, although they will not be lawyers.

The program is designed to be completed on a part-time or full-time basis. Our Master of Legal Studies programme provides students with an understanding of the legal issues facing all businesses and organisations and the knowledge to help their employers comply with regulations. No matter where your career takes you in business, government or the non-profit sector, you will be working in an environment affected by laws and regulations. More than ever, employers want to hire professionals who know how to deal with the laws and regulations that apply to their operations. The Kline School of Law offers master`s and post-bachelor`s programs for professionals seeking an understanding and knowledge of the law that will help them advance their careers in some of the fast-growing sectors of the economy and the labor market. A master`s degree in legal studies is a much more specialized degree than a program in political science. Political science programs deal with politics, government, and history, and while the program certainly includes law-related courses, this is not the primary focus. A Master of Juridical Studies program, on the other hand, is an in-depth and specialized study of the legal system as it applies to a number of different industries. A Master of Laws in Legal Studies deals with laws and regulations and how to comply with them without covering the additional topics that would be found in a political science program.

As the company becomes increasingly regulated, candidates with advanced skills in legal and regulatory analysis as well as regulatory compliance have become very attractive to many employers. While many employers don`t want to hire additional lawyers, they do need employees with demanding, narrowly targeted exposure to laws and regulations. With courses offered online and on campus, and the opportunity to take select Young Women courses, our program offers students the opportunity to join an exciting community of faculty and peers who share a passion for a variety of legal issues. The Biomedicine and Law program provides interactive and comprehensive training on the technical and practical aspects of science and research, as well as legal aspects related to new biomedical product development, entrepreneurship, and regulatory compliance. This program is designed for individuals interested in careers focused on technological development. A law degree is not limited to those who work in a law firm, nor to those who work specifically in the field of compliance. A Master of Laws can support professionals in a variety of fields and ensure that you are up-to-date on the laws and regulations that are most relevant to your industry. Some common areas that require the expertise learned from this degree are healthcare, finance, computer science, higher education, and law enforcement. Regardless of the field, the degree is suitable for anyone responsible for ensuring that their business or organisation can navigate the relevant jurisdictions. Drexel University offers a variety of graduate minors that can be added to any master`s program. Some programs may be subject to government restrictions. The online Master of Legal Studies programme provides you with a solid knowledge of the law – without having to earn a law degree.
