The graduates of the three-year basic course complete their studies with the German intermediate legal examination and the French license mention droit (French LL. B.). In addition, a two-year postgraduate course in economic, labor and social law has been offered since the winter semester 2008/2009, which concludes with the French Master 2 "mention droit de l'entreprise (M 2)" and the German legal specialization examination.
