What can the Master offer you?
The Master's Degree in Continuing Education in International Law is a postgraduate program developed by Comillas ICADE with the aim of training excellent legal professionals specialising in commercial and financial transactions, litigation and arbitration with a cross-border or multi-jurisdictional component.
It is a program taught entirely in English, which is studied in combination with the Comillas ICADE Master's Degree in Access to the Legal Profession and in which you can choose between two available tracks: one focused on international transactional practice (M&A, Finance and International Transactions) and another focused on the resolution of cross-border disputes (International Litigation and Arbitration).
The final test of the program may consist, depending on the itinerary, of a competition or moot, either on the implementation and achievement of an international sale and purchase transaction, company or project financing or other similar cross-border transactions, or on international litigation or arbitration. The faculty is made up of lawyers from leading law firms, arbitration courts and other international institutions or organisations, legal advisors of multinational companies and professors from Comillas ICADE. Our University maintains an excellent relationship with law firms, companies and institutions of national and international prestige in which you will be able to carry out the compulsory professional internships corresponding to the Master's Degree in Access to the Legal Profession and in which you will develop the skills learned in the Master's Degree in Lifelong Learning in International Law.
