O que eu aprenderei?

Program Overview

Queen’s University’s Department of Economics and Faculty of Law have partnered to offer a combined program that allows students to obtain both a Master of Arts in Economics (M.A.) and Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree in three years.

Opportunities

The program provides highly-focused interdisciplinary training for students interested in the many areas where law and economic analysis intersect, for example international trade law and policy, corporate law and policy, competition law and policy, environmental and resource management and tax law and policy.

Method of Completion

In the first year, students register full time in the School of Graduate Studies and complete the requirements for a Masters in Economics (Pattern II), as well as some 1st year JD courses for Law.
In the Spring/Summer of the first year, students complete the M.A. essay requirement and may also take some of their economics courses at this time. • In the 2nd year , students register full time with the Faculty of Law, and complete a full load of law courses, including the remaining core 1st year law courses.
In the 3rd year students register full time with the Faculty of Law and complete any remaining law requirements.

Career paths - employment opportunities

Combined M.A./J.D. students will receive excellent training and gain a strong comparative advantage to pursue both general legal careers as well as specialized legal work that requires knowledge of economic theory and social science methods, high-level policy work and academia.
