LLM programmes 2025-2026

Welcome and thank you for your interest in our Master of Laws programmes at the Faculty of Law. Our LLM programmes are taught at a Faculty and University with an over 400 year long standing tradition of legal education and academic excellence, and are rated Top 10 worldwide in the field. We offer the following one-year LLM programmes, all taught in English and here in Groningen:


We also offer a two-year LLM programme:


If you are seeking a Dutch-taught LLM, you can see our list of available programmes here.

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.
