MASTER IN LEGAL PRACTICE (SEPTEMBER ED.) MASTER IN Taxation The UC3M offers students the possibility of jointly studying the Master in Legal Practice, which will help them to prepare for the professional aptitude assessment examinations in order to exercise the profession of law, and the Master in Taxation, thus obtaining a high level of specialization which will place them in an excellent position for entering the job market.
Master in Legal Practice
In its current guise, the Master’s degree in Legal Practice has developed in response to the requirements of the Law 34/2006 of 30 October regulating access to the professions of lawyer and court procedural representative (procurador), a legal reform that was taken as an opportunity to structure a postgraduate program that will improve training of law graduates thus facilitating access to the job market.
Master in Taxation
The Master in Taxation consists on a specialized course on tax advising that undergraduates on law, economics, management and accounting may undertake, a training that combines the technical analysis of the main Spanish taxes and enforcement procedures with a practical vision of their impact on the functioning of the enterprises and the market, i.e. the economic reality over which taxes cause an influence.
The syllabus is based on a systematic analysis of the main taxes of the Spanish system. An analysis that pays special attention to some specific aspects of taxes on individuals and businesses, as well as sectorial taxation.
Besides, on the basis of previously acquired knowledge, a deeper analysis on the taxation of entities and financial transactions, the real estate sector, non-profit entities or taxation of energy and communications is performed.
