The De La Salle University Tañada-Diokno School of Law already offered the Juris Doctor (JD) program when it welcomed its first batch of students in 2010. The DLSU JD program is a non-thesis program with a focus on human rights and is aimed at preparing law students to pass the bar examinations and to engage in a competent, service-oriented, and ethical legal practice. The program is compliant with the prescribed curriculum of the Legal Education Board (LEB). Beginning Academic Year 2021-2022, the DLSU DLSU Tañada-Diokno School of Law will be offering the 153-unit law degree program, making it a pioneer and one of only five law schools in the country to adopt the revised model curriculum recently mandated by the LEB.

Since its establishment in 2009, the DLSU Tañada-Diokno School of Law has offered a unique brand of legal education with its JD program and is continually developing the program to be responsive to the needs of an aspiring legal practitioner in an evolving society.

The new JD program of the DLSU Tañada-Diokno School of Law features three major components specifically addressing the key aspects of legal education.
