As part of its globally focused, cross-disciplinary curriculum, Penn Law offers joint or dual degree programs for students interested in complementing their JD degrees with specialized study in the international arena; for example, the JD/MA International Studies integrates the Penn Law JD with an MA in International Studies from Penn's School of Arts & Sciences; the JD/MA Global Business Law program, sponsored by the Institut d'Études Politiques (Sciences Po), allows Law School students to graduate with both the JD and French Master degrees after spending their 3L year studying in Paris.
