Legal students wishing to teach law at the postgraduate level should consider an SJD, otherwise known as a Doctor of the Science of Law. This advanced degree includes intense study and research that culminates in a publishable doctoral dissertation within five years.

Students who pursue a Master generally spend one to two years in the enhanced study of their chosen field. This program is taken after receiving a bachelor’s degree, and available areas of study include science, law, technology, finance, social sciences and the arts.

The United States of America is a large country in North America, often referred to as the "USA", the "US", the "United States", "America", or simply "the States". American colleges are funded by "tuition" charged to the student, which is often quite expensive, very commonly reaching into the tens of thousands of dollars per year.
