About the Program
Owing to the wide range of topics involved, the study of Law is a varied, exciting but also challenging programme. Contrary to all the clichés, students do not simply memorise laws. On the contrary, the study of Law involves combining professional working practices and academic work with everyday events. Those who study Law learn to develop an understanding of legal processes and problems, and how to resolve them. To this end, in addition to exploring the three areas of law – Civil Law, Criminal Law and Public Law – they also deal with the legal foundations of legal methodology and legal doctrine as well as areas related to economics and social sciences. Simulated court proceedings, referred to as moot courts, and lawyer-related additional qualifications enable students at Hannover to gain their first practical experience for their later career whilst at university. During their studies, students also have the option of obtaining an (integrated) bachelor's degree.
