Emory Law is enhancing the curricula for its juris master degree program by adding two new concentrations in data, privacy and technology law and employment law and human resources.
The data, privacy and technology law concentration covers topics such as privacy, ethics and the use of artificial intelligence in the workplace; trademark, patent and copyright law; and licensing and trade secrets. The employment law and human resources concentration explores topics such as employment at will, employees versus independent contractors, privacy in the workplace, worker’s compensation, disability and discrimination, among others. These new concentrations expand the program’s existing concentrations in business law and health care law.

Students include C-suite executives, human resources directors, compliance officers and health care administrators, among others.
