-: At the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
the College of Law and the College of Business collaborated
to offer a new cutting-edge degree
for students who are interested in law
and want to work in business.
The business and law major coursework will teach you
how to solve critical business challenges from a legal
and interdisciplinary perspective.
This degree is not designed for students who plan
to go to law school and practice law.
Instead, this degree is for those who want to understand
how legal implications impact management decisions.
By having knowledge about business
and understanding best legal practices,
you will be an asset in any business,
as well as all levels of government
and civically-engaged organizations.
We created this degree
to meet the high demand from employers
for graduates with strong business skills
who know how lawyers think.
There are many careers that utilize legal knowledge
but do not require a Juris Doctor,
like a real estate manager, an environmental impact analyst,
or a health benefits administrator, to name a few.
You'll dive deep into business concepts
and build your knowledge of law
all while discovering how you can form the future.
You'll also be able to develop business strategies,
maximize emerging business opportunities,
and minimize potential legal risks.
Nebraska is one of the few universities
that can offer you a business and law undergraduate degree.
Between academics and hands-on career development,
you will do big things
through your experience at Nebraska's College of Business.
You can explore the business and law major further
by looking at its four-year plan
or meeting with our academic advisors
to answer any questions.
Your path to leading the future of business starts now.
