With this International Law MicroMasters program, you’ll master the language and institutions of international law. The MicroMasters program will give you a clear understanding of the ways by which international law exists as a legal order and bears on domestic governance (human rights), war (law of armed conflict), migration (asylum and refugee law) and the economy (investment law). You’ll learn to decode international news from a legal perspective and to understand the legal rules at play in specific professional fields of international relations (diplomacy, humanitarian aid, NGOs...).
If you’re not a lawyer, you’ll become able to interact with professional lawyers in an articulate way. If you already graduated in law, political sciences or international relations, you might even become interested in taking your MicroMasters credential to the next level, either by
- Enrolling in an online LL.M. program organized by the UCLouvain Law school.
- Or, becoming an on-campus degree student in the UCLouvain Advanced master in International Law in Belgium.
