Master of Legal Studies
Criminal Justice & Legal
Over the years, job seekers have earned MBA degrees as a way to fast-track their career advancement. The problem is that so many MBAs have been awarded that the market is saturated, making it harder for candidates to stand out. Over the last several years, increasing litigation and governmental regulations have created a need for employees with an understanding of law that often goes unmet. The MLS not only gives you many of the skills taught in MBA programs, it also prepares you to navigate your company through potentially dangerous legal waters. The General Legal Studies track provides you with a well-rounded view of law in a variety of fields.
The Master of Legal Studies offers a general degree, as well as eight optional tracks for those who wish to push their career to the next level.
- Alternative Dispute Resolution
