At GGU, we offer six LLM programs, an SJD program, and a J-1 Research Scholars program. Our programs enable students to either specialize in a certain area or to qualify to take a bar exam in the United States. Our award-winning LLM in Taxation has received both regional and national recognition.
GGU Law is also nationally regarded for its innovative curriculum focused on practical training and for having one of the most ethnically diverse campuses in the United States.
