Programme profile


This programme is designed to provide students who wish to pursue a professional career in an international environment an academic training in law without taking national legal system as the starting point. The focus will be on teaching international and European Union law on the basis of a more general understanding of what law is and how it functions, rather than on a detailed knowledge of a particular legal system. The basic aim is to provide the students with an understanding of the content and functioning of international and European law in the context of its development and application in an international public or private economic or policy-making environment.

Graduates of the programme will not qualify for legal professions within national legal systems, as this would require further extensive training in domestic law. The programme aims at academic training for careers in international companies, international organisations (governmental and non-governmental), diplomacy or academics
