Participants must complete the requirements of 15 courses and 3 workshops. The duration of the MSc in Business for Lawyers Program is 16 months. Each academic year lasts from September to December of the following year. Classes meet twice per week during afternoon hours.
Courses are selected to provide both the analytical tools required for complex problem-solving in functional areas such as economics, accounting, finance, etc., and the skills that are indispensable for successful professional competency (leadership, communication, negotiation, team-work, computer skills). In terms of pedagogical approach, this goal is achieved not only through formal instruction but also with a hands-on approach through intensive collaboration in teams. The official language of the Program is English.
The main purpose of the Program is to empower legal professionals to engage effectively with business leaders of all backgrounds and to deliver results fully aligned with the corporate strategy.
