In April 2017, Keio University Law School (KLS) established a master's degree program (LL.M.) in Global Legal Practice. This is a professional graduate master's degree course with instruction in English language - the first of its kind within a Japanese law school. KLS was established in 2004 under the founding principles of "internationalism, multidisciplinarism and pioneerism". KLS has come to occupy a position as one of Japan's top law schools, educating many promising legal professionals each year. Further, KLS has established a strong track record of internationalism, with numerous non-Japanese adjunct and full-time research faculty members and a curriculum that includes more than 15 courses conducted in English, generally with a focus on business law. In addition, KLS accepts between 10 and 20 exchange students each year from partner law schools in America, Asia and Europe.
NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements. It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
