The LL.M. is a year-long, full time program.
A one of its kind LL.M. program on the theory and practice of law and democracy. The LL.M. will offer the highest quality of teaching in small group seminars provided by leading French and international scholars. The program will benefit from a partnership with Institut Michel Villey, Paris-Panthéon- Assas University leading research center in jurisprudence and constitutional law. LL.M. students will be encouraged to participate in the rich academic environment of the Institut Michel Villey. The LL.M. is a university diploma (DU) and therefore not an equivalent to a Master's degree.
The programme runs full time from October to June and is taught by Panthéon Assas academics and invited professors from with highly regarded international reputations (LES, Pennsylvania University, …)
The curriculum is based on ten courses (24h each), for a total of 240 hours. All courses are mandatory. There are no optional courses.
The goal of the LL.M. is at the crossroads of public law, legal theory and the theory of democracy. The aim is to foster a new generation of scholars and leaders in the field of law and democratic government, and provide them with the theoretical baggage and the skills to approach modern problems of democratic governance and democratic reform.
A short course or series of lectures delivered every year by an expert or personality of international standing.
