CROSS-DISCIPLINARY: ACADEMICS

Penn Law sits shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the world's greatest medical, professional, and graduate schools. Our students can take and receive credit toward their JD degree for up to four courses across Penn's campus, including the acclaimed Wharton School, School of Medicine, Annenberg School for Communication, School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, or any one of the other six schools or various graduate departments in the School of Arts & Sciences.

At Penn, this kind of cross-enrollment is made simple by cooperation between departments and by our proximity to one another. The Penn campus is easily navigable on foot, with all departments located within seven square blocks. We invite you to read more about the University's commitment to integrating knowledge and its interdisciplinary graduate programs.
