Bucerius/WHU Master of Law and Business: Bucerius Law School

The MLB is an English-language programme consisting of several components that, when taken together, add up to a unique programme that offers strong professional instruction, a substantial Master's thesis, an internship, language-skills training for participants who speak a native language other than English, and a "Studium Generale." As a general rule, all students participate in all elements of the programme, thus providing them with both depth and breadth of experience.

Instruction is internationally and comparatively oriented. Because international lawyers and managers are problem-solvers whose experience transcends national boundaries, participants learn to assess issues from European, North American, and other cultural perspectives. In the autumn semester the coursework is designed to ensure that all students have an understanding of the fundamentals of both international business law and international business concepts. Spring and summer semester courses address a wide range of topics from both a legal and a business perspective. Many courses in international business law are closely co-ordinated with courses in international management. Exercises and case studies are used to enable students to apply the concepts, frameworks, and techniques learned within the courses.
