Legal Management (also offered as: Legal studies, or Paralegal Studies) is an academic and professional discipline that is a hybrid between the study of Law and Management (i.e. Business Administration, Public Administration, etc.). It is generally considered as the best preparatory law program for those who aspire to become Members of the Bar. Often, alumni of Legal Management programmes pursue a professional degree in law such as Juris Doctor (JD) or Bachelor of Laws (Ll.B.) while some profess as Paralegals, Law Clerks, Political Analysts, Politicians, Public Administrators, Entrepreneurs, Business Executives, or pursue careers in the Academe. The degree was designed in the Philippines and was first introduced in Ateneo de Manila University in the 1980s by former Philippine Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona. It is also offered in the United States of America〔http://nationalparalegal.edu/Bachelors.aspx〕, most notably, at the University of California Berkeley〔http://legalstudies.berkeley.edu/〕. Legal Management student organisations across the Philippines are represented by the Alliance of Legal Management Associations of the Philippines (ALMAP) to the Securities and Exchange Commission, as a non-stock, non-profit, student-run corporation. Eric Vincent G. Yumul is the National President of ALMAP for the Academic Year 2015-2016. ==Curriculum== Legal Management is currently offered in multiple degree formats depending on the offering college or university. Its variety and flexibility is a focal point among schools that have it in their roster of academic degrees. Some capitalise in the Legal aspects, while others for the Business aspects. Some schools may offer the degree either as a predominantly preparatory law programme, a liberal arts focused programme, or a business and management programme. Core subjects include: Law, Philosophy, Literature and Management (Public and Business). Depending on the school, the ratio of Law courses to Management courses vary between 40:60 to 90:10. Graduate degrees in the discipline are offered in multiple colleges and universities in the United States of America. Variations of the discipline can be conferred either as the following undergraduate degrees: * Bachelor of Science in Legal Management (BSc Legal Management) * Bachelor of Arts in Legal Management (AB Legal Management) * Bachelor of Arts in Legal Studies (AB Legal Studies) * Bachelor of Arts in Paralegal Studies (AB Paralegal Studies) * Bachelor of Science in Business Administration major in Legal Management (BSc BA Legal Management) * Bachelor of Science in Management major in Legal Management (BSc Management - Legal Management) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Legal management」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
