Master of Laws

The Master of Laws is a consecutive law degree program that enables you to deepen your legal knowledge at an academic level. The course includes specialized content in civil law, public law, criminal law, and procedural law. All topics are considered against the background of current case law. Legal history and philosophy of law are also a particular focus of the course. By individually selecting specializations in elective areas, you can incorporate your personal interests directly into your studies and, for example, focus on law or economics.

The course content builds directly on the Bachelor of Laws at the FernUniversität in Hagen. However, the course is also aimed at graduates of comparable law degree programs. The Master of Laws at the FernUniversität in Hagen qualifies you for:

• a specialized professional activity in a legal working environment,
• in-depth scientific work at university level,
• increased social commitment and personal development.
