JD / MPP法律与公共政策联合学位课程为学生提供了掌握法律和政策分析基础知识的机会。它为学生提供全面的法律培训，并对公共政策有扎实的理解，为他们在法律学术界，政府和政策制定领域的职业做好准备。两所学校均完成毕业要求后，联合学位课程的学生将获得斯卡利亚法学院的法学博士学位和沙尔政策与政府学院（Schar）的MPP。这两个学位都可以在大约四年的时间里全日制完成，而不是依次学习每个学位所需的五年时间。MPP总共需要33个学时。联合学位课程的学生必须完成必修课程的所有21个学分（请参见附表）。为了完成MPP，
The JD/MPP Joint Degree Program in Law and Public Policy provides students with an opportunity to master the fundamentals of legal and policy analysis. It provides students with full legal training and a solid understanding of public policy, preparing them for careers in legal academia, government and policymaking. Upon completion of the graduation requirements of both schools, students of the joint degree program will receive both a JD from the Scalia Law School and an MPP from the Schar School of Policy and Government (Schar). Both degrees can be achieved on a full-time basis in approximately four years, instead of the five years that would be required if each degree were pursued sequentially.The MPP requires a total of 33 credit hours. Joint degree students must complete all 21 credits of the required curriculum (see accompanying table). Twelve additional policy credits are required in upper division coursework in order to complete the MPP. Any student entering the program without relevant work experience will also be expected to complete a three credit policy related internship.
