The USC Gould School of Law’s Graduate and International Programs (G&IP) entered the 2024-2025 academic year by welcoming its newest class of both residential and online students. Students hailing from 37 countries across the globe enrolled at Gould in time to mark its 125th anniversary in 2025.

More than 425 new and continuing students enrolled across the 10 on-campus master’s degree programs. The group represents members in the 1- and 2-year Master of Laws (LLM), LLM in International Business and Economic Law (IBEL), LLM in Privacy Law and Cybersecurity (PLCS), LLM in Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), Master of Dispute Resolution (MDR), ADR Certificate, Master of Studies in Law (MSL), Master of International Trade Law and Economics (MITLE), and Master of Science in Innovation Economics Law and Regulation (MIELR).

This fall also marks the launch of two new Master of Laws degrees: the LLM in Business Law and the LLM in Media and Entertainment Law, as well as the Law and Artificial Intelligence certificate.

G&IP also welcomed more than 200 new and continuing students enrolled across the program’s two online degrees and 12 certificates.

“I am delighted that you chose to be a part of our scholarly community,” Dean Franita Tolson told the students in her welcome remarks. “Stay connected to your loved ones, make new lifelong friends in your classes, and have lots of fun and happy moments that make Gould feel like your home. Because it is.”
