EDUCATING LAWYERS SINCE 1875
Welcome to the website of the LL.M. and Postgraduate Diploma programs in International and European Law
The global economy in which we live has created a demand for lawyers capable of managing different legal systems, whilst at the same time possessing an in-depth knowledge of international and European legal principles.
Our Law School at Jean Moulin University (UJM) offers highly qualified and intellectually outstanding graduates, with a background in law, the opportunity to specialise in international, European and comparative law as well as the chance to develop their legal skills in the international context, thus facilitating their entry into the professional world whilst at the same time enabling them to pre-empt and address the dynamic nature of law in practice.
In the French system of higher education, we are distinct in that our programs are taught exclusively in English, to American Bar Association and international standards.
