To meet the challenges of practice in the 21st century, more lawyers find it imperative to more fully understand the interrelation of law and other disciplines.  To prepare students for these emerging opportunities, the Law School has developed five dual-degree programs that combine a superior legal education with graduate professional training in related fields. These programs allow qualified students to earn the J.D. and another degree more quickly than pursuing both degrees independently.

In all cases, students must gain admission separately to each school. Admission to one program does not guarantee admission to the other. After gaining admission to each school, students may apply to the dual-degree program.

The Law School offers the dual-degree programs in conjunction with certain University of Connecticut graduate schools. Students are encouraged to review the content in this section and to contact their Student Services Advisor or the specific programs Faculty Advisor for further information on the program.
