Overview
This program is offered at ELGS Athens and ELGS Rome campuses.
The main objective of the program is to offer students an in-depth look at the functioning of the European legal order in its capacity as a derivative of international law and as an amalgamation of national legal traditions and European Union law. By unprecedentedly combining theories of EU law, public international law and the general legal traditions of national jurisdictions, students should acquire a comprehensive view and understanding of the EU’s mission, progress and roadmap. At the end of their studies, graduates will be fully equipped not only to envision a truly European legal order but also to form part of its professional and/or academic network.
Moreover, this European Law program offered by the ELGS will grant students the opportunity to develop critical skills and valuable professional experience that will prepare them for life after graduation..
