These courses lead a great number of students to secure rewarding careers, and we constantly strive to ensure that our classes are as relevant to the world of work as possible.

English, a language required by many law firms and consultancies, is a compulsory part of this course. Classes also provide training in the necessary software. Alongside the fundamentals of law, students are given the right technical tools, which are essential in opening the doors to success.

In addition to expert tuition supported by two research laboratories, the administrative and teaching staff at the Faculty of Law are committed to maintaining — through the relationships they build with students — the human dimension that is and always will be the jewel in Paris 8 University’s crown.

The Faculty of Law team is a testament to the fact that the university is not an isolated entity cut off from the professional world. It is a vibrant environment that develops student’ talents, and provides them with everything they need to choose and start their career thanks to the right knowledge and soft skills.
