European and International Business Law (Advanced LL.M.)

Programme structure

Programme outline

You will learn not only the specifics of EU law in the narrow sense, but also about its multifold relationships with the WTO, as well as international investment law, intellectual property law, corporate law and many other areas of law. These interrelationships are highly complex and require proficiency in many areas so as to fully understand the depths of global commercial relations.
