  Course of Study

  If students enter the program as a law student, they will devote their first year to the standard first-year law school curriculum. After the first year, most students pursue an integrated course of study in both colleges. Some prefer to devote most of the second year to the MBA portion of the program. Students who enter the joint degree program after beginning the MBA program will spend the next academic year completing the first-year law curriculum.

  The joint JD/MBA program requires approximately three and one-half to four years of full-time study, depending on the number of courses required for the MBA. For part-time students, the first-year law curriculum will require two academic years to complete. For the JD degree, 78 School of Law credit hours are required.

  Admission

  Students are admitted to the joint program after enrolling in either the JD program or the MBA program. Applicants must be admitted to both the School of Law (requires LSAT score) and the College of Business Administration (may require GMAT score).

  The University charges JD/MBA students tuition and fees at the rate in effect for the School of Law.

  Application
  Law students should submit the joint degree program application to Law Admissions and request for their reference to submit the recommendation form directly to lawadmissions@udmercy.edu.  An applicant cannot be formally admitted to the program until satisfactory completion of the first-year core curriculum (30 credit hours). 

  MBA students should submit the joint degree program application to the MBA office. MBA students must also complete a full application to the School of Law through the Law School Admission Council (LSAC) to be considered for admission due to law school accreditation requirements. This requires a current LSAT score.

  Applicants can learn more and apply online at . Inquiries should be directed to the law admissions team at lawadmissions@udmercy.edu.

  For the MBA, students must complete courses in several categories as outlined below.

  Foundation Courses

  Foundation courses may be waived by the College of Business Administration if the applicant has taken equivalent undergraduate courses. Absent such waiver, the following foundational courses are required:

  • ACC 5100 Corporate Financial Accounting
  • MBA 5120 Data Analysis for Decision Making
  • MBA 5180 Fundamentals of Financial Management
    
    

  Core Required Courses

  Core required classes in the College of Business Administration include the following:

  • ACC 5200 Managerial Accounting
  • MBA 5200 Modeling, Analytics, and Operations Decisions
  • MBA 5210 Personal Development, Ethics, and Social Responsibility
  • MBA 5220 Strategic Financial Management

  • MBA 5250 Teamwork and Shared Leadership: Enhancing the Creative Process in Organizations
  • MBA 5260 Systems & Technology
  • MBA 5900 Strategic Management and Innovation in a Global Economy

  Electives

  Students complete nine hours of electives specifically approved as part of a cognate area concentration. These electives may be either law or business courses. Law courses considered as business electives also may be counted toward the 78 hours required for the JD. The JD/MBA faculty advisor in the law school must approve the cognate concentration.

  Additional Academic Policies

  JD/MBA students must maintain a 2.8 GPA in law courses and a 3.0 in business courses to remain in the joint degree program and to receive the two degrees. Requirements for both degrees must be completed before either is awarded. Thus, a JD/MBA program student who has completed the law requirements but not the business requirements is not eligible to sit for the bar exam. Students who do not maintain these eligibility requirements may remain in both programs, but must complete the normal requirements for each degree.
