Subjects
This is a truly unique program that gives you comprehensive knowledge of the fundamentals of Civil and Common Law, with a focus on European Union Law.
IE University has been granted a European Module within the Jean Monnet Programme to support the teaching and research of European common private law.
Possession of the Module demonstrates that the study of European common private law is approached transversally through four different courses: European Legal History, EU Law, Contracts, and Property, plus Advanced Seminars and international conferences. The Module allows students to develop a more integrated, global, and sophisticated understanding of European common private law.
These are required courses within English legislation. They come under the Bachelor in English and Civil Law that you will receive from The University of Law.
These are accredited in Spain and come under the Bachelor of Laws that you will receive from IE University.
This programme allows you to meet the requirements of the representative bodies for solicitors and barristers in England and Wales in relation to the academic stage of training in England, and to ultimately become a fully qualified legal practitioner in Spain.
Finally, through the study of the Legal Practice Course (LPC) during the fourth year, you will qualify as a solicitor in England and Wales,* adding an attractive element to your profile regardless of where you wish to start your professional career. You can study the Legal Practice Course at any of The University of Law’s locations in the UK.
*Following the LPC, you will need to complete a two-year training contract at a law firm to qualify as a solicitor.
