Annotation
Study in a practical setting for a fair global economy: In the degree course in European Business Law (LLM), you combine legal and economic expertise and supplement this with an international perspective. The degree programme offers the opportunity not only to operate successfully in an ever-changing global economy, but also to contribute to the efficient and fair design of economic processes in a complex world.
What has been learned can already be applied and tested during the course of study: Through the direct connection of the Frankfurt Institute for the Law of the European Union (FIREU), you will gain practical insights into European business law. In just two semesters, you can earn a Master of Laws (LLM) academic degree and open up a wide range of professional and career opportunities in politics as well as in public administration, business, law firms, banks, businesses and international organisations.
All students are free to enrol in the degree course: Motivation and commitment matter more than a final grade.
For all those who want to extend the knowledge they have acquired from the lecture hall to the world, European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) offers the option of a semester abroad – with 280 partner universities worldwide.
