With its new programs and activities, the Lauder Institute is consolidating itself as the premier program combining the rigor of a Wharton MBA education, or the Penn Law JD program, with the relevance of our Global and Language & Culture Programs, offered under the auspices of the School of Arts & Sciences. 2 Degree Programs The Lauder Institute offers two joint-degree programs, namely, the MBA/MA and JD/MA, in collaboration with the Wharton School and the Penn Law School, respectively. We are responsible for designing and delivering the MA degree within the School of Arts & Sciences. During the last three years: • Applications for the joint MBA/MA degree soared By 42 percent Between 2007 and 2009 and have since stabilized.
