European Law School

The European Law School bachelor brings together students from around the world to learn about legal issues through a comparative and European perspective, examining them beyond the solutions of a single legal system. In this programme, you will compare and evaluate the choices made by lawmakers' in various legal systems, and examine how international law, EU law, and national legal systems interact. Additionally, you will explore how societal factors impact laws, delving into global issues like sustainability, migration, security, and technology.

Rather than adopting a national legal mindset, you will collaborate with your peers to gain a nuanced understanding of the law in a national, European and international context. This global, collaborative environment is essential to our distinctive learning approach, enabling our students to  develop into European jurists who can contribute a unique legal perspective to address complex problems in an ever-changing world.

In our problem-based learning (PBL) method, you will work in small-scale tutorial groups of up to 15 students under the guidance of an experienced tutor.  Our tutorials are structured around in-depth discussions in which  you and your peers actively exchange ideas, debate and explore solutions to core legal problems during each tutorial. This process fosters the development of self-discipline, argumentation and communication skills.

The programme will prepare you to work as a legal professional at a national, regional and international level, both in the private and public sector. However, please note that the European Law School bachelor's degree does not automatically qualify you to become a lawyer, public prosecutor, or judge. These are regulated professions and require further study and training in the law of a specific country after finishing your European Law School bachelor degree.
