Earning a certificate in Law and Artificial Intelligence (AI) alongside your LLM degree provides legal professionals with advanced, specialized knowledge to thrive in this evolving legal area. Students who successfully complete this certificate will gain a greater understanding of the legal implications of technology and artificial intelligence across a range of industries.
Students are limited to pursuing one certificate with their degree.
To earn the certificate, you must take at least 12 units of mandatory and elective courses. Sample elective courses are provided below. Students must complete at least 8 units of numeric grading within the certificate courses, and should consult with an academic advisor to confirm enrollment in the correct elective courses, as electives may vary by year.
Mandatory courses build a strong legal foundation to support the more specialized and technical elective courses. Elective courses develop the necessary skills to examine emerging trends in artificial intelligence and technology, and their evolving impact on the legal system.
Not all courses are offered every year. Courses are open to all students, not just those pursuing a certificate. You must earn a cumulative grade point average of 2.6 in your certificate coursework to earn the Law and AI certificate.
You may petition to waive any required or elective course if you have taken an equivalent course outside of the law school as part of your undergraduate or other graduate degree.
