The Global Health Law program offers lawyers working nationally and internationally the opportunity to advance their knowledge and skills through focused studies in core legal and policy courses on global health, individual and public health, human rights, bioethics, international economics, biotechnology and science.

4 Issues of health are increasingly transnational in scope and involve complex legal issues. Georgetown s LL.M. in Global Health Law is the only program to bring together lawyers and academics from around the world for a unique study opportunity focused on this growing field of law. Students come from multiple countries with differing cultural backgrounds, and from existing positions in government, international and private organizations, health care or pharmaceutical industries, private law practice, health care services, public health systems, and universities. Georgetown s renowned faculty includes some of the world s leading experts and scholars on health and related fields. In addition to their coursework, students can pursue independent research projects with individual faculty members. Many students also secure externship placements at national and international organizations, such as the Pan American Health Organization or the Center for Strategic International Studies. Students in the Global Health Law LL.M. program spend the full year (or up to 3 years on a part-time basis) at Georgetown and have the option of combining their Global Health Law degree with a certificate in a related field. The Global Health Law LL.M.: A Unique Program of Study 3

5 The Global Health Law and International Institutions LL.M.: Jointly Offered by Georgetown Law and the Graduate Institute in Geneva Protecting the public s health and improving individual health outcomes requires international innovation and collaboration through legal systems. International institutions play an important role in global health governance and in the development of global health law and policy. A comprehensive approach to global health law involves multiple, interrelated fields including health, trade, economics, intellectual property, human rights, ethics, and national security. Georgetown University Law Center and the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies (HEID) in Geneva, Switzerland have partnered to offer a new LL.M. in Global Health Law and International Institutions. The program brings together two institutions at the cutting edge of global heath law diplomacy to offer graduate students an unmatched opportunity to further their careers in a rapidly growing field of law. In addition to benefiting from unparalleled course offerings from some of the world s leading experts and scholars in global health law, public health law, health and human rights, bioethics, intellectual property law, international trade law, international environmental law, and international affairs and development studies, students will participate in a unique internship program. Between completing their coursework at Georgetown (either in one full-time fall semester or three part-time semesters) and beginning their full-time spring semester at HEID, students will enjoy winter internships at international institutions working at the forefront of global health governance, such as the World Health Organization, UNAIDS, the World Trade Organization, and the International Labor Organization. 4

They come from careers in the public and private sector where they have worked in health law and policy and related fields at the international level or at the national level in a global context. In addition to first law degrees, many of them also hold degrees in public health, public policy, the basic sciences, or medicine.

24 Georgetown Law s Global Health Law programs are open to highly qualified candidates with a J.D., LL.B., or other first law degree and strong interest or background in global health law and policy. Students in the Global Health Law LL.M. Program spend one full academic year (or up to three years on a part-time basis) at Georgetown. Students in the Global Health Law and International Institutions LL.M. Program spend the fall semester (or up to three part-time semesters) at Georgetown Law and the spring semester at HEID. Post-graduate law students at Georgetown Law and at HEID are extraordinarily diverse, talented, and committed. They come from the U.S., Europe, Canada, Latin and South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia and from distinguished careers in government service, law teaching, research, and advocacy. They bring a wealth of experience in health law and related fields to the classroom and their research interests cover a broad range of health law and policy topics, including intellectual property law and access to medicines, the health policy implications of international trade law, health and human rights, HIV/AIDS law and policy, environmental health and the law, product safety, tobacco control, bioethics, and global health governance.
