Core Curriculum (For the Master’s & Ph.D. Programs)

The philosophy of the core curriculum rests on the conviction that every UIBE Law School graduate should be broadly educated with general legal knowledge, as well as trained in a particular legal specialty or concentration.

  Our curriculum consists of two parts: (1) a comprehensive study of the Chinese law and extensive comparative study in the law of other jurisdictions (e.g., U.S., EU, etc…); (2) additional comprehensive study of international law (especially relating to international economic and business law), with emphasis on current and forefront global legal issues.
