Change your future with the International Business Law

Completing the Trade and Investment programme opens up a wide range of career opportunities for you. You could work as a business lawyer in a law firm, an in-house legal counsel for a company, a government official, or a legal professional at an international (intergovernmental) organisation or NGO. Roles in legal research or other specialised legal positions are also within reach.

Combine the International Business Law master with a Dutch academic Bachelor of Laws, and you also meet the requirements for civiel effect, allowing you to practise law in the Netherlands and pursue registration with the Dutch Bar.
