The Master’s in International and European Law at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa offers students the opportunity to expand on their legal knowledge in an area that is becoming increasingly essential considering the world’s globalization, in which national boundaries are losing importance. 

About

Operating within an increasingly transnational and globalized world requires legal knowledge that today is focused on classical issues of public international and more on areas that focus on issues related to the internationalization of businesses and private/public transnational legal relationships, as well as human rights, humanitarian law and new developments in international criminal law. European integration is port of the new geopolitical environment. This explain the focus of the master's on several areas of European Union law such as the freedom of movement of people and the European jurisdictional system.
