Any LL.M. candidate is first of all an intellectually curious
human being. There is no limit to the potential knowledge and
preparation of any well trained jurist. On completion of this
program, each graduate will possess the strength to cross
international borders and advance in new professional directions.
The intellectual curiosity and legal expertise of each graduate
will be greatly enhanced by immersion into this intellectually
stimulating experience.
Legal education is a lifelong experience. With globalization, we
increasingly see legal professionals practicing (temporarily or
permanently) in different jurisdictions around the world. Expanding
the international scope of one’s legal knowledge and experience is
thus essential. Because international exchanges and relations
(public and private) are dramatically shaping the 21st Century,
attorneys increasingly cross cultural and geographical boundaries
and learn law and legal theories from different perspectives and in
different settings. Study abroad is by now considered and
recognized as a most rewarding human experience.
St. John’s School of Law offers an advanced and thorough degree
program, nationally recognized and highly competitive. Our faculty
is composed of superb teachers, expert in subjects such as
corporate law, evidence, constitutional law, contracts, legal
writing, international law and more. At St. John’s School of Law
you will become part of a worldwide community where every graduate
student is appreciated, respected, encouraged and directed to excel
in his/her own skills and professional life.
We await your application at St. John’s. We offer the
possibility for your legal skills to continue to grow and we would
like to enhance our legal academic environment by your professional
experiences and educational backgrounds.
