Graduate academic training includes programs for both Master of Laws (LL.M.) and Doctor of Laws (Ph.D.) students. Since 2000, the School of Law at Southeast University has successively established master’s programs in Constitutional and Administrative Law, Civil and Commercial Law, Jurisprudence, International Law, Criminal Law, and Procedural Law, and in 2019, it was approved to establish a postdoctoral research station in Law.

The LL.M. program offers ten academic tracks: Jurisprudence, Constitutional and Administrative Law, Civil and Commercial Law, Criminal Law, Procedural Law, International Law, Medical Law, Engineering Law, Transportation Law, and Big Data & Internet Law.

The Ph.D. program includes five academic tracks: Human Rights and Jurisprudence, Constitutional and Administrative Law, Criminal Law, Civil and Commercial Law, and Big Data & Internet Law.

Through initiatives such as the Dean’s Lunch, Professors’ Lunch, and monthly advisor–student meetings, the School has established a regularized mechanism for academic interaction between faculty and students. The School also organizes thematic seminars, doctoral forums, and youth academic salons on a regular basis, encouraging graduate students to engage in faculty research projects, participate in academic conferences, and apply for research grants, thereby strengthening their academic literacy and research capabilities.
