All states have laws and their own legal system, and in most countries you can only study national law at the university level. Our LLB programme in International and European Law is specifically designed for students who wish to pursue a professional career in an international legal environment; it gives students an academic training in law without merely taking a national legal system as a starting point by offering students a general understanding of what 'law' is and how it functions in different legal contexts. The core aim is to give students an understanding of the content and functioning of international and European law in the context of its development, and also of its application in an international, public, private economic, or policy-making, environment.
The English language bachelor programme in International and European Law is a unique programme, and graduates will be set apart from graduates of other academic programmes, distinguishing them on the job market. Contrary to most bachelor programmes in International Relations or Political Science leading to a BA (Bachelor of Arts) title, the focus of this programme is on legal matters. Graduates will therefore first and foremost be legal experts, but experts with great international, economic, and social insight. The programme thus also results in the granting of a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) title.
