International and European Law

"I always wanted to study abroad as well as in the UK and I wanted to do international law. The course I’m doing now is unique to my university and I couldn’t have done anything similar in the UK so it made sense to go abroad where I study with international students and gain the international experience that I originally wanted."

Christian Garrard

We have both lectures and working groups (seminars) that are very similar to the UK in many ways. Though the number of students in the lectures is typically less, only around 70, which is productive. Despite the small cohorts there are so many different nationalities it is so easy to make friends from all over the world. I have learnt a lot about different cultures and countries, and also how to make my English globally understandable.
