Course Overview

About the programme: This one-year master of laws programme – the first of its kind in German higher education – is intended for graduates with a first law degree who wish to quickly acquire in-demand complementary competences in digitalisation but who do not have prior special knowledge of mathematics, programming or similar. Students on the programme develop specific competencies for advising on digitalisation-related cases that build on traditional legal training whilst gaining essential knowledge of software development, IT security, databases and user interface design. During your studies, you will not only learn the relevant technical terminology but will also experience directly from practice how this is reflected in legal workflows or use cases ranging from the outsourcing of IT projects to software licensing agreements. While the programme builds on the knowledge and skills acquired during your prior legal studies, you do not need in-depth mathematical or technical knowledge to begin the programme. After successfully completing of the programme, you will be able to analyse fundamental technical issues, communicate with experts and initiate and supervise automation processes in legal areas of activity. The degree programme enables you to work as a legal engineer but also provides an additional qualification for lawyers, judges and legal professionals for which there is strong demand on the public and private-sector labour markets.
