Master of Laws Double Degree - McGill University and KU Leuven (Belgium)
Our innovative double degree program, which is designed to be completed in two years, offers an outstanding opportunity for students to immerse themselves in both the McGill Law and KU Leuven communities. This double degree is only open to thesis students.
The program is geared toward students who wish to continue their legal education primarily through research. Students will complete one year at McGill and one year at KU Leuven; in their second year, students will need to write one thesis that will be submitted to both McGill University and KU Leuven. (The thesis will need to comply with both universities' regulations.) After the successful evaluation of the thesis, students in the dual degree program will obtain two separate degrees.
Applicants from the French Community of Belgium, please consult information about tuition fees.
