Joint Degrees

At Wake Forest Law, we partner with schools and departments across Wake Forest University to offer three joint degrees. 

Combining a law degree with another field of study can distinguish you from others. Joint degrees allow students to learn specialized skills, understand and respond to complex issues that intersect disciplines, pursue diverse career paths across sectors and specialized fields, and gain a competitive edge in the job market.

Notify the Law School

Students must notify the Law School of their intention to pursue a joint degree before undertaking the program.
