JD/LED
The University of Detroit Mercy School of Law (UDM) and the Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (ITESM or Monterrey), Mexico's leading private law school, have partnered to offer the Degree of the Americas, a multiple degree program that allows students bilingual in Spanish and English to earn law degrees in the United States and Mexico. Students completing this legal education program are awarded the U.S. Juris Doctor from UDM School of Law and the Mexican Bachelor of Arts in Law, the Licenciado en Derecho(L.E.D.), from Monterrey. While there are many programs that enable students to study in the United States and Mexico, this program is different: it enables students to actually receive the law degrees that will provide the educational qualifications necessary to practice law in both countries. This is, as far as is known, the only program of its kind in which students complete both the A.B.A.-approved J.D. and the Mexican L.E.D.

For more information about the J.D./L.E.D. program, visit the JD/LED Program Page.

JD/MBA
UDM’s joint J.D./M.B.A. Degree Program is a four-year program that includes required law courses and the core MBA curriculum. The program also provides electives that advance specific career objectives in law or business. Law students at UDM may apply to this joint degree program after the successful completion of their first year in law school.
