About the Program

This is a dual degree program in German and French law. The program leads to two degrees: the French 'Licence de droit' and the German 'Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.)'. The integrated program allows students to continue their studies toward the German state examination or a Master's degree in German and French law. The first two years take place in Saarbrücken at the Centre Juridique Franco-Allemand (CJFA), which is part of the Faculty of Law at Saarland University. The third year is spent at a French partner university (options include Côte d'Azur, Grenoble Alpes, Lorraine, Lumière Lyon 2, Paris-Panthéon-Assas, Strasbourg, or Toulouse 1 Capitole). The program is demanding and requires excellent language skills in both German and French. After successful completion of the three-year program, students are awarded both the French 'Licence de droit' and the German 'Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.)'. The program can be continued to obtain the first state examination or a Master of Laws (LL.M.), with a total study duration of at least 5 years.
