Discover different legal systems, learn from new perspectives on law, and enjoy an academic and cultural experience that transcends borders.

The double degree programmes offered by NOVA School of Law form part of its internationalisation strategy and are based on developing strategic partnerships with a select group of leading higher education institutions whose vision and approach to legal education are particularly aligned with those of the School.

These programmes enable students to design an academic pathway across two institutions, combining their studies at NOVA School of Law with those at a partner institution. Depending on the programme, students complete part of their academic studies at each university, meeting the requirements set by both institutions and gaining first-hand experience of different legal systems and academic environments.

Upon completion of the programme, students will have studied at both institutions and will be awarded two degrees, one from each university, in accordance with the rules of the respective programme. As well as gaining legal knowledge in different contexts, this experience provides opportunities to build international networks and develop an academic pathway with a truly global dimension.

NOVA School of Law currently offers double degree programmes with partner institutions in Europe and Latin America, providing a range of opportunities for those looking to further their legal education.
