法学博士/生物化学理学硕士

CWRU提供四年制生物化学双学位JD / MS。尽管该课程并非针对所有法学院的学生，但最初是为那些具有科学背景并且对专利法具有明显兴趣并反映出知识产权的学生而设计和使用的。进入这个不寻常的计划的关键是要获得具有所有正常证书要求的CWRU法学院的录取资格。任何对双学位感兴趣的学生都可以通过法学院的申请或在三年级之前的任何时间申请该课程。鉴于被法学院录取的学生的素质，除以下内容外，没有其他要求：本科成绩单（可以从法学院获得），关于您为何要求录取该课程的个人陈述以及任何其他要求。可能与您的科学背景有关的大学函件
This program allows students in the School of Law to earn an MS degree in Biochemistry with one additional year of study. This program is useful for students with an interest in intellectual property law who are planning careers in biotechnology or the pharmaceutical industry. Students learn about intellectual property law in their JD studies and about the latest developments in the biomedical sciences in their Biochemistry studies, which allows them to work with clients who are scientists. In the dual degree program, students complete 12 fewer hours of law school coursework than they would if they were in the JD program alone. The Department of Biochemistry accepts 9 hours of law school classwork in courses dealing with science issues, in place of 9 credits of other elective work. Thus, the student will take a total of 27 hours of Biochemistry coursework of which at least 12 hours must be letter graded.
