UPenn Carey Law School is a leading institution in the United States that highly values its international ties and global commitments. They hope to “build bridges with leading international organisations, legal institutions, world leaders, and policymakers that deepen [their] engagement with pressing global issues.”

The Geneva Graduate Institute’s agreement with UPenn Carey Law School will allow International Law students from Geneva to spend one semester in Philadelphia and vice versa. The first exchanges are expected to be made for the 2026-2027 academic year. 

This new agreement with the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School — ranked 5th among the best US law schools — is a valuable addition to our already rich collection of exchange agreements that our students can benefit from. We very much look forward to sending our students to Carey Law School and to welcoming their students at the Graduate Institute next year!

We are incredibly excited to partner with the Geneva Graduate Institute, a premier institution for international legal studies. Its proximity to leading international trade and human rights organizations, coupled with its rich course offerings, provides Penn Carey Law students a unique opportunity to develop expertise in areas of increasing global importance.
