The graduates are seen as having the skills and experience needed to provide immediate value to law firms and legal departments – as well as clients
Cornell Law School is getting ready for its first LLM class in Law, Technology and Entrepreneurship. The program, held at Cornell’s tech campus in New York City, starts in September but is already getting attention from professionals in the field.
Three law firms have already asked to see the resumes of students before they even arrive on campus, according to Charles Whitehead, the director of the Law, Technology and Entrepreneurship program, who also teaches business law at Cornell. Whitehead and his colleagues have spent several years of planning to come up with the innovative LLM program, receiving input from academics as well as many working professionals.
