The J.D./M.S. dual degree program offers a student who has been admitted to The University of Toledo College of Law and one of The University of Toledo College of Engineering master of science programs the opportunity to complete requirements for both the J.D. and the M.S. degrees in an accelerated period of study. The program is designed for full-time students who have an undergraduate degree in engineering or its equivalent. Students with a non-engineering undergraduate degree will be required to complete all prerequisite courses required by the College of Engineering, depending on the nature of the undergraduate degree.
The integrated program and curriculum leads to the awarding of two degrees. The Juris doctor degree will be awarded by The University of Toledo College of Law, and the Master of Science degree will be awarded by The University of Toledo College of Engineering.
Master of Science in Engineering Degree: To fulfill requirements for the M.S. degree, 30 credit hours at graduate level are required. Students in the joint program may apply up to 12 credit hours of non-first year course work at the College of Law toward meeting the M.S. degree requirements. The College of Law course work eligible for credit toward the M.S. degree will be determined in consultation with the associate dean of graduate studies in the College of Engineering. With the M.S. thesis/project option, students must complete at least 18 credit hours at the graduate level from the College of Engineering, including nine hours of M.S. thesis or six hours of M.S. project. With the M.S. course work-only option, students must complete at least 18 credit hours at the graduate level from the College of Engineering.
Juris Doctor Degree: The College of Law requires the successful completion of 89 credit hours. The dual degree program would permit up to 12 credit hours of core courses done in the College of Engineering to be applied toward the satisfaction of the 89-hour requirement. Engineering course work credited toward the J.D. degree will be determined in consultation with the associate dean for academic affairs in the College of Law.
