波士顿大学提供三年制加速JD/MBA学位

新的双学位选择将允许学生在三年内获得两个专业学位

In Fall 2015, 波士顿大学 will begin offering an 法律与管理加速三年JD/MBA, which will allow students to attain both degrees in the same amount of time as a JD degree alone. This 双学位 will also cost less than if the two degrees were pursued separately because it can be completed in seven semesters instead of ten.

“This is a great opportunity for students to earn both degrees from BU’s highly regarded law and management schools,” says BU Law 莫林·a·奥洛克院长. “Students in this program will have the same opportunities as all of our JD students to participate in our 校园面试 program and, consistently with degree requirements, to take advantage of other curricular and extracurricular offerings like 诊所, 法律期刊, and the 交易实践集中.”

在整个为期三年的课程中，学生将学习法律和管理课程，包括第一年之后的暑期课程。 该项目旨在将学生从第二年的暑期课程中解放出来，届时法律专业学生通常会在律师事务所和其他法律机构完成实习。

“We’re delighted to be partnering with the 法学院 in this initiative,” says BU Questrom School of Business 院长肯尼斯·w·弗里曼. “参加该项目的学生将受益于将管理技能运用到法律问题上。 这将帮助他们在当今竞争激烈的市场中脱颖而出，为他们提供在复杂层面上了解客户需求的工具。”

各种类型的客户越来越希望他们的律师了解商业和金融，公司领导人必须了解他们业务运作的法律和监管环境。 商业和法律之间复杂的相互作用为在这些领域接受交叉培训的律师和高管创造了机会，他们可以在公司法、政府、投资银行、私募股权、消费者保护和金融以及创业等不同领域追求职业。
