Many have worked as associates at large law firms, judges, prosecutors, academics, members of government ministries, corporations, and financial institutions.

All LLM students have graduated from law schools outside the U.S. Duke Law’s LLM curriculum provides the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of the U.S. legal system.
