Interdisciplinary University Programs
Vanderbilt’s Law & Business Program
An innovative interdisciplinary curriculum at the intersection of law and business jointly sponsored by the law school and the Owen Graduate School of Management, this program gives aspiring corporate lawyers the tools they need to work with e-commerce entrepreneurs and explain Internet law.
The Owen School of Graduate Management has consistently been ranked as one of the top e-commerce business programs in the country. It is home to eLab, the nation’s first academic research center dedicated to the study of the Internet. The New York Times calls eLab “one of the premiere research centers in the world for the study of electronic commerce,” and the Wall Street Journal recognizes the effort as the “electronic commerce pioneer among business schools.”

The Curb Center is dedicated to exploring how the unintended consequences of decisions by business enterprises and governmental actors affect cultural policy.
