Master of Comparative Business Law (M.C.B.L.)

The Master of Comparative Business Law (M.C.B.L.) is an advanced academic program providing an in-depth understanding of business law aspects of the European single market and the Global market.  

The program aims at providing students with competence in both comparative and business law, sharpening them in their careers as strategic decision makers in the public as well as the private sector. It offers a unique combination of traditional comparative law studies (legal methodology and the common/civil law divide) and studies in business law (e.g. competition law, contract law and company law) including trade related aspects. Furthermore, it provides general and specific knowledge of the European Union legal framework and of the actors in international trade law.

The M.C.B.L. is a high-level demanding postgraduate program in the fields of European and International business law. The Program is designed for law graduates, or graduates with a sufficient background in law, who wish to pursue advanced studies to specialize in the area of Business Law with a comparative perspective.

The M.C.B.L. is a full-time program (one academic year) with daily classes. Courses take place (consecutively) over two semesters. The first term focuses on European Business Law whereas the second term has an emphasis on international business law.
