The LL.M. Law in a European and Global Context (LEGC) is a one-year full-time programme, running from September to July. The academic calendar is structured into three terms. To meet the LL.M. degree requirements, students must complete a total of 60 ECTS, including a minimum of 50 ECTS from LEGC courses and seminars. Students are free to choose courses from the other LL.M. programmes, allowing them to design their own curriculum in accordance with their academic interests and career goals.

LEGC students may obtain minors in EU Law and Integration, Comparative Law, Global Governance and Sustainable Development, Human Rights, and Sports Law, and have them officially recorded on their transcript. To obtain a minor, students must complete all the courses within the relevant specialization field.

LL.M. classes fall into two categories. Besides courses that are designed by some of the world’s top experts to give up-to-date knowledge on different fields of law, the LL.M. curriculum includes a selection of skills seminars that prepare students for the real-world challenges of legal practice.

The 2024-2025 curriculum is outlined below. Please note that adjustments may be made before the beginning of the academic year.
