Globalization is transforming the way lawyers think and work. To be a successful lawyer today, you'll need to broaden your horizons, no matter where in the world you practice. That's one of the ways earning a Master of Laws degree (LLM) can work to your advantage. An LLM degree gives you the opportunity to acquire practical, specialized, legal knowledge that will make you more competitive in a tough job market.

Through LLM coursework, you'll gain in-depth exposure to a particular area of law that will give you an edge, whether you're a new attorney starting out or an experienced attorney looking to make a career change. For foreign lawyers, the Suffolk Law School LLM degree offers an opportunity to study US legal system at a school known for producing excellent lawyers.

At Suffolk Law, the focus is very practical. You'll learn not just the law, but also how to solve problems and sharpen your writing and advocacy skills. You'll be studying at a law school with nationally ranked programs in experiential specialties, such as legal writing and clinical training. Outside the classroom, you can test your skills by completing an internship for credit, either in the greater Boston area or internationally.

Breakthroughs in science, technology, and communication have resulted in legal challenges never before faced -- challenges of global proportions for tomorrow's leaders. Suffolk Law's LL.M. in Global Law and Technology will help you meet these challenges and prepare for the future practice of law.

Created in 2002, Suffolk's Global Law and Technology program was the first of its kind in the United States: an LL.M. combining different specializations into one program. You can choose to specialize in one of the four areas below, or select from a wide range of courses to choose your own professional program:

Intellectual Property and Information Technology Law
Biotechnology and Health Law
International Law and Business
U.S. Law and Legal Methods
