About Legal Tech

The LL.B. Legal Tech is unique in Germany, in that it combines a thorough legal education with key competencies in information systems. It is intended for all those who are interested in legal and also technical challenges. Successfully completing the degree programme gives you the skills to design, administer and provide support for technical applications for all areas of activity in the legal field (â€˜Legal Techâ€™). The programme not only gives you in-depth knowledge of German and European law but also the ability to analyse and optimise legal procedures as well as the necessary understanding of IT. The degree programme therefore opens a wide and modern sphere of activity in companies, law firms, the judiciary or in governmental administration. In parallel (dual study) or after the bachelorâ€™s degree programme, you have the option of completing the undergraduate law programme and sit the First and Second State Examination for Jurists, which gives you access to all legal professions in Germany.
