The B.C.L. and LL.B. with a major concentration is open to all students enrolled in the Faculty of Law.
The Major Concentration in Commercial Negotiation and Dispute Resolution is articulated around a synthetic skill-set driven by the transversal theme "Commercial Negotiation and Dispute Resolution" and is inspired by an interdisciplinary approach.
Law and non-law courses are combined with the practical experience acquired during an internship. The required writing of an independent essay allows students to integrate the various academic and clinical strands of the major program, and, more broadly, of legal learning.
The major concentration is a 36-credit program. Students are permitted to include within their 105 credits for the B.C.L. and LL.B. 18 credits toward their major concentration. The remaining 18 credits needed for the major concentration are added on top of the 105 credits for the Law degrees for a total of 123 credits.
