Dear visitors,

On behalf of the Faculty of Law of the University of Fribourg, I welcome you on our homepage. Here you will find information about the studies of law at our faculty. We hope that you will find what you are looking for – if not, please feel free to contact the Deans Office .

But before you go on, please let me direct your attention to variety of advantages of our faculty:

• Diversity of teaching methods: During the entire education, much attention is paid to the acquisition of legal reasoning and working methods, in the Bachelor program primarily by way of tutorials and in the Master program through the comprehensive interactive intensive courses.

• Special mentions and profiles offered by the faculty in various areas give students the opportunity to place an emphasis in these areas at either the Bachelor or Master degree

• Bilingualism: the faculty – as the only bilingual faculty in Switzerland and Europe – offers students the possibility to complete their studies in German and / or French (bilingual Bachelor / Master).

• Internationality: the faculty has agreements with over 100 European universities allowing students to spend one or two semesters of their studies abroad .

It would be a pleasure to welcome you at our faculty.

Prof. Marcel Alexander Niggli, Dean of the Law Faculty
