Why is this course for me? Tis programme offers a unique opportunity to take two degrees at the same time from two different jurisdictions. You receive a Bachelor of Civil Law degree from UCD, and a French Law degree, the Maîtrise en droit, from either the Université Panthéon-Assas (Paris II) or the Université Toulouse 1 Capitole. Te Maîtrise en droit is considered to be a master’s level course. Te exceptional level of linguistic and legal
skills you acquire will put you in an excellent position to pursue a range of exciting national and international career opportunities.
What will I study?
First & Second Year You will study the essential legal subjects taken in the BCL (page 77) and required by the profes- sional bodies, including: Constitutional Law • Contract Law • Law of Tort • EU Law • Criminal Law
You will also study French Public Law and French Private Law through the French language, as well as studying French language and culture.
Third & Fourth Year Tird and fourth years are spent in one of our two exchange partner universities. Te subjects studied are determined by that institution. A Université Panthéon-Assas (Paris II) (see
www.u-paris2.fr/)
A Université Toulouse 1 Capitole (see
www.univ-tlse1.fr/)
Te programme’s intensive nature means you will not have time to take extra modules as part of UCD Horizons.
A sample timetable is available at
www.ucd.ie/myucd/law.
KEY FAC T From this programme you can qualify as an Avocat and practise law in France.
Sean
Mernagh STUDENT
Te BCL/Maîtrise is one of the most prestigious and specialised law courses in Ireland. It opens so many doors. Besides enjoying the benefits of campus life in UCD, you have the rare opportu- nity to live and study in France for two years. Te course, while
being work intensive and requiring a high level of dedication, encompasses so much more than the study of two legal systems. I have become fluent in French, and had the chance to travel around France and Europe, experience different cultures and meet people from all over the world. I have also been involved in numerous extra- curricular activities, including marathon run- ning and debating, and even interned in a highly reputable Paris-based law firm. Tis degree definitely gives you that ‘edge’ which is becoming increasingly necessary in the current economic climate. I will pursue an LLM in the College of Europe, Bruges, next year.
