The study programme covers one academic year, divided into three terms.
The Masters Course is designed to provide students with advanced knowledge in Economic Analysis of Law: the use of economic methods to explain and assess the effects of divergent legal rules.
Since differences between national laws have been at the core of European policy making, the Masters Course offers unique value concerning the EU’s central ambitions.

The language of instruction is English, but the master thesis can also be written in another European language, excluding the student’s mother tongue.
