Overview and admission
Study Type
graduate
Admission semester
Winter Semester only
Area of study
International Law
Target group
Foreign graduates aspiring to specialise in German law
Notes on the course: The two-semester degree course is strongly related to European law and therefore also differs from most Master's degree courses in German law in Germany. European law is becoming an increasingly important component of legal education and training. An isolated view of German law without reference to European law is hardly possible any longer, particularly in civil, constitutional and administrative law.
From the very beginning, the students have to decide whether they want to focus their degree course on private, criminal or public law.
