The Law Degree from Loyola University aims to make its students integral and upright jurists. For this, along with the study of traditional legal disciplines, the curriculum has been enriched to include materials oriented toward understanding reality from a broader and more contextualized perspective. Thus, for example, in our Law Degree there are subjects that analyze interactions between law and ethics, and with politics and society.  Furthermore, our curriculum includes subjects in the world of economics and business, and incorporates studies in humanities, human rights or social Christian thought.

On the other hand, the Law Degree from Loyola University helps our students to develop skills and core competencies for professional practice, like the ability to analyze reality, to search for solutions to complex problems, to orient conduct towards principles of freedom, equality justice and solidarity, legal argumentation, the ability to draft legal documents, public speaking or debate.  

We also emphasize the study of Legal English, a skill we reinforce in Loyola Idiomas with the possibility of obtaining an International Legal English Certificate (ILEC) accredited by the University of Cambridge.

The Law Graduate

The Law Degree trains professionals to have a strong command of the various branches of the Spanish legal system, as well as in European Law and international Law.

Loyola University encourages, moreover, the training of future professionals to be aware of globalization processes of social, economic, political and environmental reality, to be capable of resolving conflicts and able to communicate, both as leaders and innovators.

Why study Law?

The Law Degree is one of the most versatile university degrees as far as career prospects are concerned, in both law practice as well as other areas.  This degree enables its graduates to work in different legal areas, such as in the practice of law, as attorney-at-law, judiciaries, notaries, registries or in diplomatic careers.

The Law Degree is also an ideal training basis for those wishing to engage in the management of other companies or organizations, since combined with a graduate degree, it prepares for work in Company Management, Human Resources, Marketing, Sales, Insurance, Banking, the Stock Market, etc. In addition, the Law Degree allows professionals to participate in legal, tax, governmental, research and teaching assessment.

Law is a discipline that not only seeks to explain the whys and wherefores of things, but also tries to find the logic behind the main issues and challenges facing the human being. For this reason, it helps to develop skills and aptitudes that are very useful in life, like the ability to: analyze; to search for solutions to complex problems by applying the Law combined with the principles of justice and fairness; to improve the ability for self-expression and oral and written argumentation as well as Rhetoric and Oratory.
