About the Law School

The Peking University School of Transnational Law (STL or PKUSTL) (Chinese: 北京大学国际法学院) is located in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. The school started in the fall of 2008 as a part of the Shenzhen Graduate School of Peking University. It is the first law school to offer a traditional western-style Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree (in English) alongside a Chinese-style Juris Master (J.M.) degree (in Mandarin). The program is four years and graduates receive both the Chinese Juris Master's degree and, by special authorization by the Chinese government, a J.D. degree. STL also offers a 3-year J.D. degree in English and a 1-2-year LL.M. degree. The school's tagline is "China's most innovative law school in China's most innovative city"
