LL.M. in Law and Sexuality

About the LL.M. in Law and Sexuality

The LL.M. specialization in Law and Sexuality builds on the role of UCLA School of Law as a leader in the field of sexual orientation and gender identity law and scholarship. The goal of the specialization is to expand the quality and extent of legal knowledge and public discourse on issues related to sexuality and law.

LL.M. students in Law and Sexuality will have the opportunity to take classes offered by faculty and scholars associated with the Williams Institute, to be mentored by them, and to participate in a range of Williams Institute activities, including the speaker series and annual conference, moot court competition, and the Dukeminier Awards journal.

During spring semester 2014, Professor Kees Waaldijk from the Leiden Law School in the Netherlands will be the McDonald/Wright Visiting Chair of Law at UCLA School of Law and Faculty Chair of the Williams Institute. Professor Waaldijk is one of the leading scholars on comparative sexual orientation law in the world.

Staff from the Williams Institute will work with LL.M. students to secure internships in the Los Angeles area and to establish connections between LL.M. students and international experts and organizations working in their geographic or topic area.
