 LLM in American Indian and Indigenous Law

Continuing its role at the forefront of Indian law, TU is proud to offer the LL.M. in American Indian and Indigenous Law. The LL.M. is designed to train American lawyers and lawyers from around the world in the issues critical to understanding and representing American Indian and other Indigenous Peoples.

The LL.M. offers a balanced approach, emphasizing the three foundational sets of legal principles: domestic laws of the United States (federal Indian law), law of the tribal governments, and international law applicable to Indigenous Peoples. The vast array of available courses allows students to gain a general understanding of each of the three sets of foundational principles, and then proceed to specialize in one or more of them or develop a related subspeciality, such as in natural resources law.
