Master in Business Law \u2013 In-House Counsel (IP\/IT)<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

An insight into the world of business law firms<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Students from the Business Law and In-House Counsel (IP\/IT)<\/strong> Master’s programme at the Faculty of Law of the Universit\u00e9 Catholique de Lille<\/strong> were welcomed to the Lille offices of Bignon Lebray<\/strong> for an introduction to the work of a business law firm and the evolving legal profession. Led by Benjamin Mourot<\/strong>, Partner, the session provided valuable insight into the day-to-day practice of law and the key challenges facing legal professionals today.<\/p>\n

Although all students on the programme complete a work-study placement and are already familiar with the professional world, the visit gave them the opportunity to explore an environment with which they may be less acquainted: that of business law firms. Discussions highlighted the differences between careers in-house and in private practice, while offering practical insight into the responsibilities, working methods and career prospects associated with this professional pathway.<\/p>\n

This initiative reflects the dynamism of the Master’s programme, which regularly enriches its curriculum through meetings and exchanges with legal professionals. These immersive experiences allow students to compare their work-study experiences with other areas of legal practice and to refine their career aspirations as they progress through their studies.<\/p>\n

Delivered through a work-study format, the Business Law and In-House Counsel (IP\/IT)<\/strong> Master’s programme is designed to train legal professionals capable of developing a cross-disciplinary understanding of the legal issues surrounding digital technologies and a company’s intangible assets, enabling them to identify and manage associated risks effectively.<\/p>\n

The work-study structure allows students to immediately apply their academic learning in a professional environment. From the first year onwards, students alternate between two weeks in the workplace and one week at the University, fostering the development of practical and professional skills alongside their academic training.<\/p>\n
