Students may obtain a J.D. and M.B.A. in four years instead of the five years necessary when both programs are pursued separately. This programs is particularly appropriate for students with career objectives in corporate law, tax law, or labor law. The joint degree program in Law and Cultural Foundations of Education, with a concentration in Disability Studies was approved in January 2003 and offers students the opportunity to earn a J.D. and M.S.in Education. Eligible joint degree students may also earn a Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) in Disability Studies, which is a New York State-approved concentration.Disability Studies applies legal, social, cultural, historical, and philosophical perspectives to the study of disability in society.
