The 30-credit Master of Science in Law (MSL) degree at Woodbury College helps non-lawyers gain legal knowledge to increase their effectiveness and advance their careers. In a business and professional climate highly regulated and rich in legal dimensions, the law is so important that everyone should understand it. Woodbury?s MSL degree helps professionals develop the skills to work confidently with the law and lawyers, and prevent needless litigation. The MSL also has special value for foreign attorneys and foreign business executives who wish to understand the American legal system and work with it effectively, and for paralegals seeking advanced training along with an advanced degree. The Human Resource Law concentration provides students with a general overview of law affecting the non-unionized workplace. These legal issues include Federal legislation and administrative regulations; the hiring, firing, promoting, disciplining or evaluating of employees; and the various laws prohibiting discrimination in the workplace.
