Department of Business Law

The Department of Business Law seeks to prepare students to work as business people, entrepreneurs, and corporate executives who are well versed in business law and others who contribute to international society.

The Department offers two courses so that students can efficiently take the specialized coursework they'll need as they pursue their future goals after mastering the basics necessary for studying business law. (Students choose a course during their second year.)

In the Corporate Law course, students who are interested in building careers in industry, for example at private-sector companies, or in becoming entrepreneurs or corporate executives take corporate law courses on topics such as the Companies Act and courses that are closely related to corporate law, for example on topics such as economic law, intellectual property law, and tax law.

In the International course, students who are interested in careers that center on international society, for example in trade, international commerce, travel, or tourism, or in working at an international organization, focus their studies on international law courses and foreign law courses.
