The Master of Laws (LLM) in American and International Law is designed for foreign-trained lawyers. It is equivalent to a "General" or "Traditional" LLM or an "LLM in American Law." Temple's program is appropriate for international attorneys; legal academics, counsel, and government officials; recent law graduates; and those who have earned a first degree in law.


Our LLM program is one of the longest running in the United States, with alumni around the world. U.S. News & World Report ranks Temple Law as a top law school, particularly in healthcare law, international law, legal writing, tax law and trial advocacy. Courses within our specialty rankings are popular with international students.


At Temple University's Beasley School of Law, LLM students take courses together with Juris Doctor (JD) students, becoming part of a tight-knit community.
