School of Law offers dual degrees in partnership with USC's other renowned professional schools.<\/p><p>A dual degree enables you to gain competence in another discipline with relevance to the roles lawyers play in society. You will also be able to count certain law school courses toward your other graduate degree, and vice versa, allowing you to complete both degrees in less time than it would take to earn them separately.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n        <\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c46398 background-white elementor-widget elementor-widget-content_block elh-el content_block\" data-id=\"6c46398\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;title_tag&quot;:&quot;H2&quot;,&quot;slidein_title_tag&quot;:&quot;H2&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"content_block.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n        <div class=\"block-content-wrapper \" style=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-content-wrap mb-25\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"header-wrap \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<H2 class=\"title \">\t\t\t\t\t<span>Considerations in Deciding to Pursue a Dual Degree<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/H2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"description-wrapper  mt-20 mb-30\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Dual degrees are best suited for the student who enters USC Gould with a clear career path already in mind - one that would be enhanced by a second advanced degree in a particular field. Keep in mind, if you intend to practice law after graduation, the JD alone may offer just as many career options as the dual degree.<\/p><p>The USC Gould curriculum is already strongly interdisciplinary in nature. For instance, if you are interested in a JD\/MBA, you may want to focus instead on our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gould.usc.edu\/academics\/concentrations\/business\/\">Business Law<\/a>\u00a0curriculum and one or more of our business-related certificates. In addition, non-dual-degree students can take up to 12 credits of USC graduate-level courses outside the law school and have them counted toward the JD.<\/p><p>To earn your JD, you must complete no less than 76 units of law classes, including 37 numerically graded units after your first year. Note that courses taken toward your other graduate degree do not count toward fulfillment of either requirement. For more detailed information, students should refer to the JD Student Handbook.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n        <\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca85caf background-white elementor-widget elementor-widget-content_block elh-el content_block\" data-id=\"ca85caf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;title_tag&quot;:&quot;H2&quot;,&quot;slidein_title_tag&quot;:&quot;H2&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"content_block.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n        <div class=\"block-content-wrapper \" style=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-content-wrap mb-25\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"header-wrap \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<H2 class=\"title \">\t\t\t\t\t<span>Dual Degrees Offered<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/H2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"description-wrapper  mt-20 mb-30\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The partnering programs are listed below.

My legal analysis and legal writing helped me write policy, and my work in policy helped me look beyond the legal minutiae. I took a class at the law school that helped draft a piece of legislation.
