The Graduate Program aims to attract intellectually curious and thoughtful candidates from a variety of law graduates, legal systems and backgrounds and with various career plans.
Also, the courses we provide are diverse. In Group A, there is no uniform course of study is prescribed for graduates. Courses are elective, and students tailor their studies to their own interests. In Group B and C, due to the lack of legal profession, there are some mandatory courses need to be taken. Moreover, each graduate student is invited to use the resources of the Law School in whatever program of study will best prepare that individual for a career in research, teaching or bar exam.
The Master Program expanded into three programs, Program A, Program B, and Program C. Below is the Master Degree requirements:
