Dual Degrees
A dual or advanced degree can enrich your studies and enhance your professional qualifications. Our dual degree programs dovetail with the offerings of other Boston University graduate schools—enabling you to earn two advanced degrees in less time than it would take to pursue them separately. In addition, the BU Law Graduate Tax Program and Graduate Program in Banking and Financial Law allow qualified students to pursue a Master of Laws degree (LL.M.) at an accelerated pace, usually in just one additional semester.
Professors on the Cutting Edge
Professor Stanley Fisher inaugurated a new BU Law Clinic in which students screen prisoner applications to the New England Innocence Project (NEIP), a non-profit organization whose mission is to identify, investigate and help exonerate wrongfully convicted individuals incarcerated in New England. Under Professor Fisher’s supervision, students investigate and assess prisoners’ requests for help in obtaining DNA evidence which could establish their innocence. >>More about the project
