Benefits of the JD/MSF

As the legal and business worlds become increasingly connected, today’s successful attorneys need to have the skills to address both the legal and financial impacts of a decision. The Juris Doctor/Master of Science in Finance (JD/MSF) is designed to provide an education grounded in both law and finance, preparing graduates to respond to the complexities of today’s business environment and setting them apart from their peers.

“As the managing partner of a law firm, I cannot emphasize enough how important both my legal and financial skills have been in growing this business. My firm specializes in corporate legal matters, so having a strong understanding of financial principals is a huge part of what I do - and the skills I learned in the JD/MSF program allow me to add tremendous value to my clients every day.”
