Program Overview
- Program Description:
- The Master's Programme Public International Law challenges students to develop their own views on the role and functioning of law in the international society. After providing students with a thorough understanding of the fundamental doctrines of public international law, the programme aims at confronting them with different perspectives from theory and practice. As the programme will be taught in The Hague, it will, as far as possible, draw upon the expertise available in the various international institutions located in The Hague, such as the International Court of Justice, The International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia, the International Criminal Court and the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. Students will be asked to contribute actively to the programme in oral and written presentations.
