Program description
The Kellogg School and Northwestern University's School of Law offer an integrated Juris Doctor (JD) MBA program. The JD-MBA gives students a thorough grounding in both management and law. Their multidisciplinary education prepares JD-MBA students to address the many legal and business issues that they will face in their roles within legal practice, public governance, consulting, investment banking, entrepreneurship, venture capital and other careers.
The JD-MBA program is an accelerated course of study. The core curriculum is complemented with elective course work in such areas as finance, entrepreneurship, international business law, real estate law and tax law. Both degrees are awarded upon completion of 16 managerial courses and 72 hours of law course work.
Students complete the program in three years, rather than the five years that it would take to finish the two degrees separately. Students spend their first year of study (including the summer) at the Law School on the Chicago campus. During the second year, students attend the Kellogg school. During the final year of the program students take courses at the Law School, but may take additional electives at Kellogg.
