Master complémentaire en droit européen (Droit de la concurrence et propriété intellectuelle )/ LL.M. in Competition and IP Law

Depuis la création de l’Institut, les enseignements européens – et internationaux – ont pris une place croissante dans les programmes de la Faculté de Droit. Ils sont aujourd’hui regroupés dans un programme de Master complémentaire en droit européen axé sur le droit de la concurrence et la propriété intellectuelle. Le programme proposé est bilingue : les cours sont donnés en anglais et en français. La brochure du Master complémentaire est téléchargeable ici (.pdf).

Since the creation of the Institute, European law - and international law - has an increasingly important place in the programmes of the Faculty of Law. These two areas of the law are brought together for students in their third cycle who wish to specialise in competition and intellectual property law (European and international aspects). The programme is bilingual: the courses are given in English and French. The LL.M. booklet can be downloaded here (.pdf).

Qu'en pensent les étudiants ? What do students think of the course?

"C'était l'occasion rêvée d'approfondir les matières de la propriété intellectuelle et du droit de la concurrence qui m'intéressent particulièrement. On peut en effet compter sur une équipe de professeurs et d'assistants experts et sur un enseignement bilingue" (Julien Jost)

"Thanks to this LL.M., I was able to gain an in-depth knowledge in both IP and competition law. It also gave me the opportunity to particpate in the College of Europe 'Competition Law Moot Court' and develop a more practical way of thinking. The fact that this LL.M. is taught in French and English was a surplus for me, as Dutch speaking student" (Sam Bishop)

"A very interesting education offering excellent insight into all aspects of IP and competition law and focussing on the current debates in both bodies of law. Highly recommended because of the combination of a theoritical and practical approach" (Frederik Baeyens)

"Une formation ancrée dans l'air du temps, une dimension internationale certaine, un environnement multi-culturel et une occasion idéale pour améliorer sa maîtrise de l'anglais juridique" (Catherine Hough, UK/Belgique).

"Thanks to a teaching staff consisting of both leading academics and practitioners, this LL.M offers in-depth insights in IP and competition law. Through its interactive formula and international orientation, it enticed me to think outside the box and to develop a cross-broder perspective on both bodies of law. Furthermore, my command of both French and English has improved significantly during the course of the program. Administrative support during the year is superb. All in all, I highly recommend the program." (Kristof Neefs, 2006-2007)

"Unforgettable bilingual education by top Brussels lawyers and other excellent professors with substantial experience in IP and competition law. The two main themes are thoroughly imbued throughout the courses, all of this in a multinational surrounding with ample opportunity to discover other European cultures. The decision to come to the IEJE has been the best decision so far in my student life. Students graduating from the LL.M. program are definitively ready to "play the game"." (Irena Tusek, 2006-2007)
