UIC Barcelona offers students of the Bachelor's Degree in Law and the Master's Degree in the Legal Profession the opportunity to practice law in the US via an agreement with St John's University. The prestigious North American university has three programmes to choose from on its renowned Master of Laws (LL.M.), which prepares you for the New York Bar Association exam. Each option is a specialisation master.

Based on hands-on learning, the LL.M. at St John's University is taught by the most experienced academics and practising lawyers in New York, whom UIC Barcelona students will allow have access to thanks to this agreement between both universities.

Presentation

Studying UIC Barcelona's Bachelor's Degree in Law or Master's Degree in the Legal Profession opens the door for you to study the LL.M. at Saint John's University, New York.

For an entire academic year, you will study this programme that will allow you to practice law in the US after you pass the bar exam. The programme is also an internationally recognised master's degree (Master of Laws). Very few Spanish universities have direct access to such an agreement.

The US university also gives UIC Barcelona students the option to do a course prior to the LL.M. on legal English for foreigners, "English for American Law School", which will better prepare you for the qualifying process and the bar exam.
