Double Degree Law
Bocconi has developed a double qualification program within the School of Law, offering students a unique portfolio of opportunities with outstanding universities. Participants will have the chance to live a unique academic and life experience fostering their career in legal professions, becoming able to master the complexity of future challenges for companies and institutions in a plural context.
The Double Degree program offers 4th-year Law students the possibility to spend their 5th and last year of the Integrated Master of Arts in Law in another prestigious Partner School, specializing in their field of interest.
Provided that both institutions' academic requirements have been met, participants will be receiving a graduate degree both from Bocconi and the foreign institution.
The admission process for the Double Degree program happens during the first semester, while students are enrolled in the fourth year of Bocconi Law program.
Application period: November/December
Selection results: mid/end of February
Students' confirmation: mid/end of February (before Themis and Exchange Program rankings)
Additional information on the application procedure, timing and deadlines are presented during the International Opportunities Presentation for Law students and available in the Reserved Area.
Please note that students can apply for Double Degree, Themis, and Exchange Program at the same time (check the application timeline for each program) however, they must confirm their participation in the Double Degree before the Exchange Program and Themis rankings are published.
Students' names will appear in the Exchange Program rankings only if they decline their place in the Double Degree Program, without paying the administrative contribution. Students selected for the Double Degree program will have a few days to confirm their participation by paying the required administrative contribution of 2000 €
