Our online Executive Master in International Law in Armed Conflict is one of the few part-time, innovative and intellectually challenging programmes in the law of armed conflict offered today. Designed for professionals with demanding jobs and responsibilities, it provides them with the legal tools to address complex contemporary conflicts, humanitarian emergencies, human rights negotiations or criminal proceedings.
Applications for the upcoming academic year are now open. They will remain open until 31 May 2024, with courses starting at the end of September 2024.
