Working on many law & tech projects we often wondered, why has nobody explained to us how these things work; and when we finally had grasped how they do and shared with our project partners that their technical solution faced some legal hurdles, they asked back why we hadn’t told them earlier. So, we picked our brains and developed the program we wished we would have studied ourselves. A program which provides enough technical knowledge for lawyers to enable technical innovation and preps engineers for legal compliance by design:

 

Welcome to the Master of European Technology Law!

AI, Autonomous Robots, AR, Big Data, Digital Twins and the Internet of Things challenge the legal system just as much as the legal system influences how innovative ideas must be designed, tested and launched to succeed in the market. Understanding both legal and technological terminology and concepts is key to turning technical innovation into reality. That’s why we have created an interdisciplinary master's programme combining methods and content from law and technology. The programme includes research-oriented theory and practical projects to develop future skills.

The Master's degree course is aimed at German or international graduates who have obtained their first degree either in law or in informatics/software engineering and seek to explore the interaction of law and technology. The part-time program caters to young professionals who need to balance studies with their current career. It is equally attractive for foreign students who want to spend a year on campus and engage in further academic activities, such as research or language training.
