Students can also supplement those courses with approved electives, internships and externships.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no competitive application process \u2014 students simply need to satisfy the requirements and indicate their interest in their final semester. Those who do will have \u201cArtificial Intelligence and the Law Concentration\u201d listed directly on their transcript.<\/p>\n<p>The concentration\u2019s committee of advisors includes\u00a0Matthew\u00a0Sag, a world-leading authority on copyright and AI who testified before the U.S. Senate on generative AI;\u00a0Ifeoma Ajunwa, founding director of Emory Law\u2019s AI and the Future of Work Program and author of\u00a0\u201cThe Quantified Worker;\u201d\u00a0Jessica Roberts, a leading scholar of AI\u2019s legal and ethical implications in health care;\u00a0Kevin Quinn, who teaches Data Science and the Law and&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nationaljurist.com\/emory-law-launches-artificial-intelligence-and-law-concentration\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emory Law launches artificial intelligence and law concentration https:\/\/nationaljurist.com\/emory-law-launches-artificial-intelligence-and-law-concentration\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-25 15:44:00 Source Domain:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":281827,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/assets.nationaljurist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/emory-law.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[19],"class_list":["post-281826","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-generative-ai"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281826"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=281826"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281826\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":281828,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281826\/revisions\/281828"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/281827"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=281826"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=281826"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=281826"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
