Students complete the two LLM degrees in two years and one session rather than the three years it would take to attain them separately. See the LLM coursework requirements (with or without a concentration) above.

  • Year 1: students register in the Tsinghua University LLM program.

  • Fall session of Year 2: students register in the University of Toronto LLM program.

  • Winter session of Year 2: students return to the Tsinghua University LLM program.

  • Fall session of Year 3: students register in the University of Toronto LLM program and complete the dual degree program by the end of that session.

Upon successful completion of the degree requirements of both programs, students receive the University of Toronto and Tsinghua University Master of Laws degree.

The Rotman-SDA Bocconi GEMBA will change the way students think, network, and do business in some of the world’s largest markets: North America, East Asia, South Asia, Europe, and Latin America.

Upon successful completion of the degree requirements of both programs, students will receive an MBA from the Rotman School and a Global Executive MBA from SDA Bocconi.
