    Legal Education


    Legal education is the education of individuals who intend to become legal professionals or those who simply intend to use their law degree to some end, either related to law (such as politics or academic) or business. It includes:

    * First degrees in law, which may be studied at either undergraduate or graduate level depending on the country.
    * Vocational courses which prospective lawyers are required to pass in some countries before they may enter practice.
    * Higher academic degrees.

    Legal education (general)
    In addition to the qualifications required to become a practicing lawyer, legal education also encompasses higher degrees such as doctorates, for more advanced academic study.

    In many countries other than the United States, law is an undergraduate degree. Graduates of such a program are eligible to become lawyers by passing the country's equivalent of a bar exam. In such countries, graduate programs in law enable students to embark on academic careers or become specialized in a particular area of law.
