Master of Laws (LLM) in European and Transnational Intellectual Property and Information Technology Law – LIPIT Intellectual Property and Information Technology Law (LIPIT)

Intake Season

Winter (October)

Duration

2 semesters

Academic Admission

Our admission requirements are a Bachelor's or higher degree in law, computer science, engineering, media studies, or another subject plus one year of relevant professional experience. If you are still finishing your Bachelor's studies or have less than one year of professional experience when applying to the programme, it will not impede your application. It is only important that you complete your studies and have one year of professional experience before the beginning of the programme. Since our students come from various countries with different grading systems, we do not formally require that you achieve a particular average grade in your previous studies (e.g. British first-class honours), but your grades will certainly constitute an important criterion in the evaluation process of applications. Though our most typical applicants are law graduates, we also welcome applications from graduates from other disciplines as a way to ensure the diversity of backgrounds, skills, and experiences leading to fruitful and mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and ideas. If your previous field of study was not law, we may ask you to provide a short explanation of how your studies and/or professional experience are relevant to the specialisation of this Master's programme. The professional experience requirement can be fulfilled through various practical activities, including internships and traineeships. For example, German law graduates' practical training ("Referendariat") satisfies this requirement. However, if a practical activity constituted a mandatory part of your Bachelor's programme, it cannot be counted as professional experience. In certain cases, admission can be granted to applicants with professional experience of less than one year.
