J.D./MBA Concurrent Degree Program
Consistent with the increased interaction between the fields of business and law, the College of Business Administration and the School of Law, together, offer the J.D./MBA concurrent degree program. The MBA degree ordinarily requires a minimum of 30 hours of course work, while the J.D. alone requires 90 hours. The J.D./MBA concurrent degree program, however, allows for 9 hours of law classes to be accepted toward the MBA degree and 9 hours of business classes to be accepted toward the J.D. degree. The result is a concurrent degree program that entails 81 semester hours of law and 21 semester hours of business courses, with an 18 semester hour savings over pursuing both degrees separately.
J.D./M.Acc. Concurrent Degree Program
Due to the increasing need for professionals with a tax specialization, the School of Accountancy and the School of Law jointly offer the J.D./M.Acc. concurrent degree program. The purpose is to prepare the student to become a CPA/Attorney-at-Law tax professional. The M.Acc. Degree ordinarily requires 30 hours of course work, while the J.D. degree alone requires 90 hours. The J.D./M.Acc. program, however, allows for 9 hours of accountancy courses to be accepted toward the J.D. degree, and 9 hours of law classes to be accepted toward the M.Acc. degree. The result is a joint degree program which entails 81 semester hours of law and 21 semester hours of accountancy courses, with an 18 hour savings over pursuing both degrees separately.
