This program is designed for students interested in comparative
law, international organizations or transnational business. Students
may supplement courses at the College of Law with offerings at
the Graduate
School of International Studies and the Graduate
School of Business. With permission, law students may take
eight semester hours of credit (equivalent to twelve quarter hours)
in non-law programs which count toward the 90 semester hours required
for the J.D. degree.
Students in the program may work on the Denver
Journal of International Law and Policy as staff
members and editors. Also, the International Law Society sponsors
a rich schedule of outside speakers and an annual conference.
Each year a distinguished visitor delivers the Myres S. McDougal
Distinguished Lecture in International Law. As the first prize
in an international law writing competition, one student each
year is awarded the Leonard v.B. Sutton Award providing a summer
of study abroad, usually at The Hague Academy of International
Law. Students concentrating in international legal studies frequently
enroll in the dual degree program, earning a J.D. and an M.A.
in International Studies or an M.B.A./M.I.M. from the Graduate
School of Business.
