Overview

Each of our distinct specializations focuses on interdisciplinary learning and provides you with a unique mix of academic, applied, and theoretical perspectives. You will learn through interactive discussions and explore practical issues related to your specialization. You’ll have access to a wide range of elective options to broaden your legal knowledge or explore new areas related to your professional interests.

The Professional General Law program from York University provides an option for lawyers to combine two to three specializations to customize their learning for their own personal and professional goals.

Who is the Specialization for?

Lawyers or law graduates with legal work experience who have knowledge and expertise in two or more areas of specialization that cannot be effectively combined through one of OsgoodePD’s existing full-time options.
Our full-time Professional LLM options are geared to applicants who are in a career transition period or wish to take time away from work to focus on their studies. While full-time students are welcome to work part–time during their studies, we encourage those working full–time to consider our part-time options.
