Double Master in Business Legal Advice and Specialist in Corporate Law and Control of Legal Risks of the Company (Compliance)

The Master program builds on 4 subjects with different features, contents and duration.

Firstly, a compulsory general part focused mainly on Company Law, Contractual Law, Legal and Business English, and Economic and Financial Management in Businesses.

Once completed this first general module, the students acquire specific technical knowledge related to the main areas of the business legal advice, such as Tax Law, Uniform International Commercial Law, Labour Law, and practice of law related to financial markets and free competition.

The relevance of these subjects in the business legal advice profession is shown by the total number of credits and the fact that they all are compulsory.

There are also 12 optional credits which allow the students to study in greater depth specific aspects of the business legal advice. They consist in 5 subjects with a strong practical component because of their contents, methodology and program, or because they are placements in businesses or law firms engaged in business legal advice.

The curriculum is concluded with the preparation of a 6-credit master project focused on a specific subject.

* The teaching of this subject is suspended until the Agreement between the General Council of the Judiciary, the Ministry of Justice, the Autonomous Community of Madrid and the Carlos III University of Madrid, for external internships in courts and tribunals, is renewed.
