Courses
The programme consists of two compulsory courses: International Business Law and Conflict of Laws: International Arbitration and Litigation. Next to these compulsory courses, you will choose a number of optional courses, related to the specialisation chosen. If you are aiming for a general LL.M. in Business, Corporate and Maritime Law you may choose courses out of all optional courses offered within the programme.
Many of the courses in this programme are specifically designed for Business, Corporate and Maritime Law students (RR53, RR55, RR56, RR 63, RR 64, RR65, RR 71 and RR73), taught in small groups and are not open to students from other programmes.
Other courses (courses with a non-RR course code), are open to students from other programmes as well. Class size is usually larger in this case.
