Prof.D in Law

The Juris Doctor offered by the Shepard Broad College of Law at Nova Southeastern University is a comprehensive legal degree for people ready to advance their careers and make a difference. It layers legal knowledge over expertise gained in other professional areas. Students choose between a full-time schedule and an evening schedule, and they can align their coursework to personal interests through concentrations. The curriculum combines classroom study, research, activity credits, clinical or field placements and qualifying community service. The law school's alumni network across South Florida is a frequent draw for anyone planning to practice around Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade. The application opens in September, with a priority date for scholarship consideration and a final deadline in June.
