Our law programmes are unique, offering students the chance to further specialize their knowledge of law in an international context. Students can also pursue two LLMs simultaneously if wanting to specialize in multiple areas at the Groningen campus, and we offer online web classes for several of our programmes for those interested to sample the programme content. And Groningen as a study destination is second to none; a popular and lively city amongst students yet only a short distance to countryside landscapes. It's a safe and pleasant place to live.

We invite you to apply to our programmes and become a part of our Faculty community, in preparing for your future international career in legal work environments, research, or practice.
