“This unique programme is designed for students who want the rigor of an NYU LL.M. but see the focus of their research or practice in Asia, or in Asia’s relations with the rest of the world.”
Simon Chesterman, Global Professor and Director of the Programme
New York University School of Law and the National University of Singapore (NUS) have launched a dual degree programme known as NYU@NUS. The inaugural class began in May 2007 with students from 23 countries. Students are based in Singapore and earn an LL.M. in Law and the Global Economy from NYU and an LL.M. from NUS. Courses are taught by NYU and NUS faculty.
