Graduate School
Established in 1918, the Graduate School has evolved into four divisions (engineering, humanities, science, and social sciences). It embraces 23 doctoral and 32 master's degree programs in and among 25 University departments, institutes, and programs. Of the approximately 1,900 degree-seeking Graduate School students, 99 percent are full-time, 70 percent are pursuing a doctorate, 42 percent are women and 23 percent are international students. Among U.S. students, 10 percent are from underrepresented groups. The 2008 incoming doctoral class averaged a 3.7 undergraduate G.P.A. Prestigious multi-year fellowships are awarded to the top 14 percent of each incoming class. More than 85 percent of Notre Dame graduate students are funded during the academic year, allowing them to take courses and do research on a full-time basis. Over the last decade, more than 96 percent of Ph.D. recipients have gone on to research-related (or degree-related) occupations.

Law School
Founded in 1869, the Notre Dame Law School is the nation's oldest Catholic law school and one of the oldest university law schools in continuous operation. It consistently ranks in the top tier in various rankings, including student satisfaction surveys. It is accredited by the American Bar Association and is a member of the Association of American Law Schools. Most of the 560 students earn a juris doctor degree after three years of study. Other programs include the LL.M. and J.S.D. programs in international human rights sponsored by the Law School's Center for Civil and Human Rights, and an LL.M. program in international and comparative law at the Notre Dame London Law Centre. Through the London Law Centre, J.D. students can participate in summer study and have the opportunity to spend their second year abroad in the only ABA-approved year-long foreign study program.
