The Master of Laws (LL.M.) in U.S. Law at the University of Florida Levin College of Law is designed specifically for graduates of non-U.S. law schools. The program provides foundational knowledge of the U.S. legal system, requiring 26 semester hours completed in one year. Core courses include Introduction to the Legal System of the United States and Legal Writing and Research for LL.M. in Comparative Law; the rest of the coursework can be tailored from the law school’s broad J.D. curriculum, allowing either a general legal education or a specific legal focus. The program prepares international students for careers in which U.S. legal training is valuable and can help meet prerequisites for some U.S. bar exams (California, Texas, New York).
