    "page_content": "<p>Our online LLM programs are ideally suited for business lawyers and law graduates from around the world who are currently engaged in or interested in a business law career within government, industry, or private practice, and who wish to advance their expertise in several specialized concentrations without the expense or disruption of relocating to the United States for a traditional on-campus program. A juris doctor (JD) degree or a first degree in law from an academically qualified non-U.S. law school is required. Applicants with a U.S. juris doctor degree must be&nbsp;a graduate of an ABA-approved law school&nbsp;juris doctor program.
