PROGRAMA LL.M.

Penn State Law’s international students travel thousands of miles to State College with a common, single step: to immerse themselves in our classrooms, libraries, and communities to learn from extraordinary professors and peers from around the world.

Penn State Law is integrated within the larger Penn State University, a global leader in cutting-edge research. The LL.M. curriculum prepares students for careers in law, government, academics, and non-governmental organizations, with the option for the exceptional student to prepare for the New York State Bar or transfer to the J.D. Program. S.J.D. Students pursue advanced independent study with faculty mentors to produce research contributing to distinguished legal scholarship.

Penn State Law, located on Penn State’s University Park campus in State College, Pennsylvania, offers all of the resources of a world-class, public research institution together with challenging and innovative classroom study and ample opportunities for learning by doing.

From orientation day to commencement day, the Penn State Law faculty guides students as they learn the law, refine analytically, writing, and communication skills, and apply new knowledge in clinics, externships, and problem-based courses.
