Overview

Legal Sciences at Pompeu Fabra University has a clear international and global focus.

One of the programme's main draws is the fact that all subjects are optional (only two subjects are compulsory, including the master's thesis). Thus, students can freely choose and design their academic track.

All students on the programme, who come from a wide range of countries, have the chance to participate in world-class research activities organized by the Department of Law or any of its specific areas.

Who is it for?

Students seeking to pursue more advanced and specialized academic training than that provided by a bachelor's degree in a prestigious, international university environment.
Legal professionals seeking to update their knowledge, explore a specific legal subject in depth, or supplement their training with a more general and international perspective.
