This special seminar will highlight selected topical issues at the intersection of law and business. It is designed to integrate the legal and business dimensions of the Joint JD/MBA Program through an exploration of contemporary challenges and developments in both fields. To enrich these discussions, some sessions may feature guest lectures by professionals in the fields of law and business. Seminar participants are expected to complete an in-depth research essay, present their research to the class, and provide constructive commentary on the work of their peers. Classes will be highly participatory, emphasizing discussion and practical application rather than a purely lecture-based format. Students are expected to come prepared for each session and contribute actively to discussions. Some assignments and course components may consist of video recordings and/or may be conducted online. The above information is provided for course registration purposes only and is subject to change at any time.
