The LL.M. AWArDS combines the excellence of academics and practitioners in the field of international and investment arbitration (lawyers, counsels, arbitrators, quantum experts, managers of third-party funders, artificial intelligence researchers, etc.).
Courses are delivered in the heart of Paris (at the Institut de droit comparé and at prominent law firms).
The program covers both international arbitration and investment arbitration. It combines the French perspective with a comparative approach. It also deepens other core aspects of dispute resolution mechanisms: mediation, negotiation, settlement agreements, international business litigation, etc.
Core objectives:
The LL.M. program is offered in Paris, one of the most prominent international arbitration venues, internationally recognized as such.
The curriculum achieves the proper balance between an academic approach and a more empirical and practical approach to confront students, as prospective arbitration practitioners, with the complex realities of this multifaceted field of practice.
The training targets to enroll between 20 and 30 students. The objective of this training is to welcome non-French-speaking foreign students to Paris-Panthéon-Assas University as part of a specialized training.
LLM AWArDS' candidates come from China, Brazil, Georgia, Germany, Greece, the Philippines, Turkey, as well as from three US partner law schools (Duke Univ., Georges Washington Univ., University of Virginia).
The selected students will be:
The selection will be made on the basis of an application file, if necessary, after an interview (including by videoconference).
The level of English of applicants, whose mother tongue is not English, will be assessed by the presentation of the TOEFL results:
- 100 for the internet version (iBT) of the test (with 25 for each section);
- 600 for the paper version (PBT) of the test (with 60 for each section and 5 for the Test of Written English).
If the applicant is unable to present the results of these tests, the level of English may be established differently, subject to an interview by videoconference with the head of the LL.M., if necessary.
The programme will be carried out over one year from September to June, for a total of 312 study hours. It will take place in Paris, in Saint-Germain des Prés (Institute of Comparative Law).

“The LL.M. in European Law at Université Panthéon-Assas has broadened my horizons in many different ways. First of all, I was able to deepen my expertise in the substantial EU law, but also to gain insights into new areas due to the broad curriculum. It has provided me with a valuable perspective on the EU’s general approach and fundamental values. Not only have I enjoyed learning from excellent professors with great expertise in their various fields, but also from fellow students from all over the world. Interacting with inspiring people from different legal systems while forming friendships has made the experience even better than I ever imagined it could be.”

“The LL.M. in European Law as taught at University Panthéon Assas has a unique approach to teaching European Union Law. It dives into the areas of EU law which have the most impact on the economy and the
day-to-day life of European citizens, while still keeping the EU’s broader structures and its history in sight. The courses are taught by scholars and practitioners from all over Europe, helping the students learn about the theoretical as well as the practical aspects of European Union law. This opportunity is fostered by excursions to the EU institutions, which bring students in touch with all kinds of practitioners involved with Union law and offer a variety of insights for potential future careers.”

“The teaching by highly-motivated and talented professors from all over the world brings a huge amount of expertise and diversity that leads to an impressive high-level quality of teaching. This quality of teaching was higher than I have ever experienced before during my studies in Germany and France.”
“The LL.M. with its focus on democracy is an absolutely unique program that equips its students with an in-depth understanding of democracy, public and constitutional law as well as politics that is extremely valuable for everyone pursuing a career in the field of democracy and public law. It enables future academic researchers to discover their fields of interests and gain a broad but at the same time deep understanding of public law and democracy to e.g. prepare for a PhD.”

All courses strongly focus on case-studies and deepening of key subjects in a transversal and pluridisciplinary perspective.
The LL.M. International Business Law includes a minimum of 200 hours of teaching and welcomes approximately 30 students or trainees over a period of one academic year.
The LL.M. International Business Law program focuses on practical case studies and key topics, with a multidisciplinary orientation.

“I chose this programmme because it offered a wide variety of modules all of which hold an important part within a business, it presents them from an international point of view allowing students from all over the world to benefit from the knowledge imparted by the teachers.
Lastly, as a Dominican lawyer focusing on corporate law and working with many international firms, graduating from the LLM has enabled me to comprehend the world of business law on an international plane and apply this new knowledge on the cases we see each day at the office.”

“I joined the program at a point in my career that I was becoming too specialized in areas like environmental law, corporate law and other ESG-related issues, and maybe neglecting the fact that there is much more out there. The LL.M. helped me update my knowledge of some things I had only seen during law school and gave me a good understanding of how the legal system works in the EU and in Singapore.The LL.M. was invaluable for me to find a job in Singapore and create roots here. From an overall perspective, I always say that the LL.M. opens many doors and fosters opportunities that, if you put some effort and use it well, can take you to anywhere you want.”

About the programme
This LL.B. Bachelor of Laws is offered in Mauritius on the Uniciti Education Hub by Paris-Panthéon Assas-University. This 3-years programme offers a unique blend of Common law, Civil law, Mauritian law and International Law. By emphasizing on core business and international legal issues, it will provide you with an in-depth view of key legal subjects and is undoubtedly a strong basis for any legal career.
Submission of application form online and required documents to be sent to Paris-Panthéon-Assas University : Submit an application.
Launched for the first time in Mauritius in October 2016, this programme is a reflection of the university’s willingness to develop its law programmes at the international level.
Created on the model of a French licence (3-years diploma), this LL.B. aims at providing students with a comprehensive training in law. One of the cornerstones of the programme is the consideration of the specifics of the Mauritian legal system as the latter is inspired from both civil and common law. Moreover, while the module titles are often very similar to the ones of the French licence, their content is adapted. In order to maintain coherence and to consider the students’ interest, the programme takes into account those Mauritian specifics (the Mauritian civil law is largely drawn from the French law, while the administrative law is derived from English law).
Furthermore, while this programme is mostly geared towards Mauritian students, it also aims at attracting students from the East African and Indian Ocean regions. Hence the inclusion of modules with an international scope, and the use of English (which is also Mauritius’ official language) as the medium of instruction for all classes.
In addition, core legal subjects required for any 3-year programme in law are part of the LL.B. curriculum. These include Introduction to Civil Law, Introduction to Public Law, Criminal Law, Business Law, Administrative Law, International Law (Public and Private), Personal & Family Law, Property Law, Law of Contract, Labour Law, Civil Procedure, Criminal Procedure and Evidence, Revenue Law as well as a number of modules with an international scope.
Last but not least, about 75% of the professors on the programme come from Paris-Panthéon-Assas University’s campus in France. The need to maintain a majority of French Faculty is our priority, allowing us to transfer our institution’s expertise and to highlight our uniqueness.
Admission to the LL.B. programme are to be made by the 20th of September of each year (see Art. 2 of the rules and regulations).
As indicated in the Programme’s Rules and Regulations, students eligible to apply are those holding a French Baccalaureate or equivalent level and whose application has been accepted by a commission composed of two Professors from Paris-Panthéon-Assas University.
The following list of documents is required for an application to be reviewed :
Lower 6 / Classe de première / Form 6 results (or equivalent)
For candidate eligible for a direct entry in 2nd or 3rd year, the following documents will be required, in addition to the ones above:
The validation of prior experience can be considered in lieu of the Baccalaureat, to the discretion of a Professors’ commission from Paris-Panthéon-Assas University.
The 3-years LL.B. curriculum is organised in 6 semesters. All of the modules are taught in English, and the exams are conducted in English.
Some of the classes or seminars may be taught in French, not exceeding 25% of the number of hours per semester. For these classes, the exams will be conducted in French.

D.U. "Officier de Gendarmerie" : droits d'inscription à l'université + complément IEJ de 740 euros.
Une réduction de 200 euros sur le complément IEJ sera accordée aux étudiants ayant déjà suivi, l’année précédente, cette même formation.
Conçu sur le modèle d’une « 6e année » universitaire, après un Master 2 en Droit, le déroulement de l’année ressemble à la fois à celui d’un Master 2 et à celui d’une classe préparatoire.
L’année se déroule en deux grandes phases :
La préparation sportive commence dès septembre (service des sports de l’Université)
Le DU s’appuie sur la préparation générale au Concours de l’IEJ en y ajoutant des spécificités : le Diplôme d’Université signifie, avant tout, un accompagnement régulier et individualisé : est mis en place un suivi personnalisé de l’étudiant, à travers un système de tutorat, permettant d’identifier et de surmonter ses difficultés.
Les enseignements de la préparation permettent de couvrir l’ensemble du programme des épreuves écrites d’admissibilité. La préparation comprend, d’une part, des enseignements généraux (cours magistraux et méthodologies appliquées) et, d’autre part, des enseignements méthodologiques spécifiques (note de synthèse, culture générale, droit public, droit pénal, histoire – géographie).
Pour cette première étape de préparation de l’admissibilité, 530 heures d’enseignement sont réparties dans toutes les matières au programme du concours :
Plusieurs séances seront proposées par ailleurs dans le cadre d’un “séminaire de sécurité intérieure” comportant des séances axées sur la compréhension des institutions et sur la connaissance approfondie des enjeux de la sécurité intérieure : histoire de la force publique, organisation et missions des forces de sécurité, connaissance des institutions (Police – Gendarmerie).
Un atelier CV et lettre de motivation est organisé pour nos candidats à l’EOGN : les considérations communes sont présentées et un suivi personnalisé des candidats est réalisé.
Tous les cours et enseignements méthodologiques pourront être suivis à distance. Ainsi, ils sont proposés
Suite à son inscription administrative, l’étudiant choisira librement lors de son inscription pédagogique s’il veut suivre les travaux dirigés et effectuer ses épreuves (concours blancs) à distance ou en présence. Après un délai d’un mois, ce choix sera irréversible, sauf accord exceptionnel des responsables de la formation.
Des entraînements aux épreuves écrites d’admissibilité sont régulièrement organisés dans les conditions du concours : ainsi, 4 concours blancs regroupent toutes les épreuves choisies par le candidat pour le concours.
Chaque copie bénéficie d’une correction individuelle, en plus du corrigé de l’épreuve.
Des entraînements aux épreuves sportives sont proposés tout au long de la formation dans le cadre de la préparation. L’IEJ travaille en étroite collaboration avec le service des sports de l’Université pour proposer des entraînements personnalisés en fonction du niveau de chacun des candidats et adaptés aux exigences du niveau des concours.
Les étudiants du DU se verront proposer des sorties culturelles et visites relatives à la Gendarmerie nationale ou en lien étroit avec les questions de sécurité.
Nota Bene : La préparation EOGN, hors D.U., n’est pas diplômante. Elle a en commun avec le DU les enseignements et concours blancs
Tous les cours et enseignements méthodologiques pourront être suivis à distance. Ainsi, ils sont proposés
Après l’inscription administrative, l’étudiant choisira librement lors de son inscription pédagogique s’il veut suivre la préparation à distance ou en présence.

Le LL.M. est un diplôme universitaire et n’est pas l’équivalent d’un diplôme de master.
Présentation
Le Diplôme d’Université « droit public et démocratie » (LL.M. public law and democracy) est un programme de formation de niveau master en langue anglaise, principalement tourné vers un public d’étudiants internationaux. Les enseignements se dérouleront à l’Institut Michel Villey et dans les différentes implantations de l’Université Paris-Panthéon-Assas.
Le public visé se compose de deux catégories d’étudiants. D’une part, il s’agit des étudiants désireux d’acquérir une expertise professionnelle dans le domaine de la pratique démocratique (associations, agences gouvernementales nationales, ONG nationales et transnationales, grandes organisations internationales). D’autre part, il s’agit d’étudiants ayant le projet de se diriger vers un doctorat et une carrière universitaire.
Le but est de donner aux étudiantes et étudiants une ouverture à la pensée démocratique et aux nouvelles pratiques de la démocratie contemporaine.
Les enseignements se répartissent entre la pensée politique, le droit constitutionnel, et les enjeux de la démocratie contemporaine.
Le contenu de la formation vise ainsi à rapprocher la connaissance théorique et la pratique de la démocratie.
Les enseignements seront dispensés, entièrement en anglais, par des professeurs de l'Université Paris-Panthéon-Assas ainsi que par des enseignants étrangers issus de grandes universités internationales.
Le LL.M. est accessible aux étudiants étrangers titulaires d’au moins une deuxième année de Law School américaine (dans le cadre d’un échange entre leur université d’origine et l’Université Paris-Panthéon-Assas) ; aux étudiants titulaires d’un JD ou de tout autre diplôme de fin d’études juridiques dans leur pays d’origine, comportant au minimum quatre années d’études supérieures, soit 240 crédits ECTS ; à titre exceptionnel, aux étudiants titulaires d’un diplôme comportant 180 crédits ECTS, si le parcours d’études dans le pays d’origine le justifie.
Le LLM est par ailleurs accessible à un nombre limité d’étudiants français chaque année (maximum un quart de l’effectif maximum, soit 5 étudiants) pouvant justifier de 5 années d’études (M2) et de 300 Crédits ECTS.
Les étudiants sont sélectionnés sur dossier (un maximum de 20 étudiants est admis par promotion) et, éventuellement, après un entretien si le jury de sélection le juge utile.
L’admission dans le LLM est exclusive de toute autre inscription, au sein de l’Université Paris-Panthéon-Assas ou dans tout autre établissement français ou étranger.
Le LL.M. se déroule sur la durée d’une année universitaire.
Le programme d’enseignements du LL.M. comporte 10 enseignements obligatoires de 24h chacun, soit 240 h au total.
Unité 1 – La pensée démocratique
Unité 2 – Le constitutionnalisme
Unité 3 – La démocratie et le gouvernement démocratique
Hors unités : Chair of Democracy confiée à un intervenant étranger. La chaire ne fait pas l’objet d’une évaluation, mais l’assiduité est obligatoire et fera l’objet d’un contrôle.
Tous les enseignements sont dispensés sous forme de séminaires en langue anglaise. Cependant, les étudiants ont la possibilité de suivre des cours de langue française organisés à l’intention des étudiants étrangers.
Les étudiants peuvent s’inscrire dans l’enseignement de français langue étrangère (FLE). Des points leurs seront attribués à ce titre, dans la limite de 3 points venant s’ajouter au total de points dans le LLM).
