Criteria and Documents
Academic and professional requirements
The programme is designed to be suitable for those having substantial professional legal experience in the field of energy law. Being an executive master, both the academic background and the professional experience of applicants are of importance. The Admission Board of the Advanced LLM in Energy Law will consider applications from those having substantial relevant professional legal experience and holding an LLM degree, an LLB degree or an equivalent qualification from an internationally recognized university. Additionally, the Admission Board also considers applications from those holding a degree in another field than law. In this case, candidates with different degrees (or other equivalent qualification) should not be deterred from applying. Each application is considered on its own merits and, in exceptional circumstances, qualifications of equivalent status may be accepted.
