FLD experience
The institution has helped me out since the very first time I got in touch asking for information, going from the secretary to all the amazing and capable professors and even the Dean, who are always looking over you, making you give your best to be an step forward from everyone else. Lectures are thought not only to probe your knowledge, but to challenge you to open your mind to go and see beyond of what any other advocate does.
Lizeth. a mexican student of the master 1
I come from Germany and I study in the Faculté de Droit of the University Catholique de Lille the master 1 on International and European Law. My decision to study on the Catholic University of Lille is based on the offer of an optimal degree program taught 100% in English, that is an excellent option for an international legal education. The program in English in France is the perfect opportunity to improve skills in two languages during the same time. The exchange and the interactive lessons in the small classes with the professors about their professional experience from several international law fields is a high benefit. Lille is with the high amount of students a great city to study with many international students.
