Syracuse University, United States
The JD can be pursued concurrently with an MA or PhD in Philosophy, conferring degrees from both the College of Law and the Philosophy Department, and can be completed in substantially less time than separately. It prepares students to analyse legal theory and history through ethical, moral and political philosophy.
Faculty: College of Law / College of Arts and Sciences | Department: Philosophy Department | Study mode: full-time | Location: Syracuse, NY, United States
First-year students typically take mainly law courses. The College of Law accepts up to 15 Philosophy credit hours toward the JD; the Philosophy MA requires 24 hours of coursework and a six-credit thesis defence.
Applicants must be admitted to the regular programme of each participating unit; a College of Law advisor helps prepare a petition approved by both units and filed with the Interdisciplinary Programs Committee. Application deadline is early March. The LSAT is generally accepted in place of the GRE.
Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.
Duration: 15 credits
