LLB Global LawAdd to shortlist
Programme profile
The world is changing fast. Large players such as international law firms, global businesses and governments need lawyers who are not afraid of complex cases involving many countries. These lawyers can work in international teams, with other lawyers and other professionals (with backgrounds in economics, business, and engineering). These lawyers know the law; they can find it, explain it to others, comment it and criticise it.
This new programme prepares these lawyers of the 21st century. Tilburg Law School has an outstanding team of professors with an international reputation. They are already working in global law and they are eager to teach it. The programme offers the best elements from successful global programmes in the US and the EU:
- Law is taught without referring only to the law of one country, so that you can work in cases involving many countries
- Emphasis is put on links with other disciplines such as economics, psychology or political science
-You are prepared to work in large organizations, i.e. international law firms, global businesses, ministries, European institutions, NGOs
