Master's Degree Programme in Technology Law

If you want to develop your skills in technology law, this programme is for you!

You will learn along with emerging regulations, resilience skills, ethics as well as CSR and ESG considerations. You will not only be well-versed in the law but also equipped to navigate the ethical and social responsibilities that come with the integration of technology into organisations' practices. 

As a technology law student, you must be very independent and able to develop and research. Therefore, you are expected to have an active and curious attitude as well as readiness to schedule your studies and commit yourself to completing them.
