The Universiteit Maastricht is the youngest university in the Netherlands and growing rapidly. The UM has seven faculties: the Faculty of General Sciences, the Faculty of Arts and Culture, the Faculty of Economic Sciences, the Faculty of Medicine, the Faculty of Health Science, the Faculty of Psychology and the Faculty of Law. Next to that there is the University College Maastricht.

The Universiteit Maastricht (UM) is known at home and abroad for its unique education system: Problem-based learning. This type of education is a high-scorer with educational inspectorates and comparative research. A further aspect of the university’s profile is its strong international orientation. This profile appeals to students: students from all over the Netherlands and an increasing number of foreign students choose the Maastricht system.

The Faculty of Law offers an English language postgraduate programme, the Magister Luris Communis programme, which leads to a degree of Master of Laws (LL.M.) in comparative European and International Law. This one-year program is open to students who – upon successful completion of their basic legal education – wish to acquire the specialised knowledge and skills necessary for a European or internatonal legal career.
