LL.M. Competition & Regulation:
Online Studies

Online Learning for your professional LL.M.

The­re are cur­rent­ly few LL.M. that of­fer an online-learning programme. This for­mat has been in­tro­du­ced at the Leu­pha­na Pro­fes­sio­nal School for the LL.M. Com­pe­ti­ti­on & Re­gu­la­ti­on to fa­ci­li­ta­te stu­dy­ing for an LL.M. whilst en­su­ring the right ba­lan­ce with your pro­fes­sio­nal and pri­va­te life. You can flexi­bly struc­tu­re your LL.M. to continue working in your pro­fes­si­on whilst suc­cess­ful­ly stu­dy­ing.

E-learning does not mean sim­ply watching vi­de­os on your com­pu­ter at home wi­thout any fur­ther sup­port. In fact, e-learning in­vol­ves much more ex­ten­si­ve sup­port than a con­ven­tio­nal de­gree. The­re are many short ac­tivi­ties such working through quiz­zes and wri­ting fo­rum posts that ac­tive­ly in­vol­ve you in the on­line dis­tan­ce-learning pro­gram­me. An e-tutor will help you to re­mem­ber the­se ac­tivi­ties and en­cou­ra­ge you to work on them.

The­re are also a num­ber of live clas­ses in the e-learning pha­se over the cour­se of your LL.M.: a te­le­pho­ne con­fe­rence using Ado­be­Con­nect gi­ves you the chan­ce to en­ga­ge with staff, pro­fes­sio­nals and other stu­dents. The e-learning team at the Pro­fes­sio­nal School is the­re to pro­vi­de tech­ni­cal sup­port, so you can suc­cess­ful­ly stu­dy wi­thout ad­van­ced IT know­ledge.

This struc­tu­re is uni­que for a law pro­gram­me, dif­fe­ring si­gni­fi­cant­ly from tra­di­tio­nal law lec­tu­res and se­mi­nars. The com­bi­na­ti­on of e-learning and online live sessions al­lows us to of­fer an LL.M. pro­gram­me that can be per­fect­ly com­bi­ned with your working life to pro­mo­te your ca­re­er in com­pe­ti­ti­on and re­gu­la­ti­on law.

Ano­ther part of the online learning LL.M. is We­bi­nars. The eve­ning or weekend We­bi­nar for­mat brings in prac­ti­tio­ners from ma­jor law firms, who sha­re their ex­pe­ri­ence of work in com­pe­ti­ti­on and re­gu­la­ti­on law. Re­pre­sen­ta­ti­ves of com­pe­ti­ti­on aut­ho­ri­ties and re­gu­la­tors also re­port on their work and give you an in­sight into the "other side". The pro­gram­me thus has strong links to prac­tice, and stu­dents can start de­ve­lo­ping their own net­work in the com­pe­ti­ti­on and re­gu­la­ti­on field.
