The University of California’s Berkeley School of Law will begin offering an AI-focused master of laws (LLM) degree next summer, Bloomberg Law reports. Applications are now being accepted for the program, which was created with the assistance of leaders from within the AI industry, including Meta Platforms Inc. and Anthropic. A spokesperson for the school says the program is ideal for attorneys “seeking to future-proof their practice.” Courses will include AI ethics, the fundamentals of AI technology, and current and future efforts to regulate AI at home and abroad. The program is structured to be completed over two summers or over a year by working remotely in combination with a summer on campus. Read more from the school.
