JD/MSc (Geology or Geophysics)

About this programme

Students in the following graduate combined-degree programs may complete both degrees in less time than the four years required if the degrees were completed separately. These programs are designed for students who envision a career where law and another discipline intersect. To see the formal requirements for the program you are interested in, please visit Western's Academic Calendar . The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is required for all combined-degree applicants. A score above the 80th percentile is considered a competive score. You can create an account with the Law School Admission Council and register for the LSAT online at lsac.org . If you are a highly motivated, talented student capable of managing the demands of two intensive programs simultaneously, the JD/MBA program provides an exceptional education. You will be uniquely positioned to pursue highly rewarding careers in law and business and make valuable contributions to fields that require the application of both disciplines. The JD/MBA program begins with MBA courses from January to August before first-year Law. Both degrees are completed in 38 months instead of the four academic years that would be required if the degrees were completed separately. Law: Apply to Western Law through the Ontario Law School Application Service by November 1 . Check both “JD” and “JD/MBA” when selecting the programs to which you are applying. There is no extra cost associated with this. (If you select only JD/MBA you will still be considered for the JD program.)
