Specialized Master in International Law

The Advanced LL.M in Public International Law aims to give specialised training in public international law. Courses are given in English or in French.

The majority of the courses of the LL.M are taught in seminars, which include, among others, the analysis of case studies and oral pleading exercises.

Through the various courses, students acquire an in-depth knowledge of public international law. They become acquainted with methodological and theoretical principles of international law as well as its argumentation techniques, mainly through participation in moot court competitions. Optional courses allow students to direct their studies towards areas which are of particular interest to them : « Security and Conflicts » or « Human Rights ».

The LL.M requires an active knowledge of either English or French and a passive knowledge of the other language.

The students will be in the heart of Europe, home to multiple international representations. They will be trained by a highly qualified and dynamic teaching staff, composed of academics and practitioners who have acquired internationally renowned experience by acting as counsels before the International Court of Justice, as counsels for governments, embassies, international organisations…

Courses are taught in English or in French. Students can express themselves in whichever language they prefer, both during the courses and for the purposes of the (written or oral) exams.
