外国律师法硕士

面向外国律师的两年制法学硕士课程是为那些在学术和专业上都表现出色的法律学生设计的，他们还没有达到足够的英语水平，无法获得在美国法学院学习的全部好处。被录取为两年制LLM的学生将通过校园内的英语课程（ELP）从为期6周的LLM前强化法律英语课程开始他们的课程。每天有五个小时，学生将学习专门为法律英语学习者设计的课文。完成为期6周的课程后，学生将加入即将入学的1年制LLM学生。在为期两年的法学硕士课程的第一年，学生将参加《美国法律与方法入门》 I，这是专门为外国受训律师设计的两门课程的第一门课程。两年制法学硕
The Two-Year LLM for Foreign Lawyers is designed for law students with outstanding academic and professional achievements who have not yet reached a sufficient level of English language proficiency to get the full benefits of studying at an American law school. Students admitted to the Two-Year LLM will start their program with a 6-week summer pre-LLM intensive Legal English program through the English Language Programs (ELP) on campus. For five hours a day, students will learn from texts specifically designed for learners of Legal English. At the completion of this 6-week program, students will join the incoming 1-year LLM students. In the first year of theTwo-Year LLM, students will take Introduction to U.S. Law & Methods I, the first course in a two-course sequence specifically designed for foreign-trained lawyers. Two-Year LL.M students will take this course alongside 1-Year LLM students in an integrated class setting. Two-Year LLM students will also take two more substantive law classes, one in each semester. These courses will also occur in an integrated setting that will include 1-Year LLM students as well as US JD students. During the first year, students will also take two Legal English classes, Intensive Reading and Writing and Intensive Listening and Speaking. These two courses, which will meet five-hours weekly during the duration of the first year, will prepare Two-Year LLM students both for the assignments of their substantive law classes as well as for the linguistic and academic demands of an LLM program.
