To avoid scheduling conflicts, the Amsterdam Law School advises Exchange students to choose their courses within one master programme (please see above).

Students without a background in European Union Law need to take the introductory course in European Union Law. This course is offered twice a year (September and February). Students without a background in Public International Law need to take the introductory course in Public International Law, offered in September only.
