LL.M. Specialization in Food Law and Policy
To be awarded the specialization in Food Law and Policy, students must maintain a B- (2.7) grade average in courses taken for the specialization. Detailed course descriptions are linked in the listings below. Prospective students should bear in mind that, due to curriculum scheduling and faculty availability, not every class listed is taught each year.
