The Master's programme in European Private Law gives students a thorough understanding of this developing multilevel system of private law in Europe.
This Master's programme provides students with a unique opportunity to specialise in European private law, with a coherent set of courses covering the issues central to the Europeanisation of private law. The University of Amsterdam houses the Amsterdam Institute for Private Law (AIP), which conducts research specifically on the consequences of European integration and globalisation for private law. The AIP has two research programmes: European Contract Law and Dutch private law in the framework of an international legally comparative perspective. It collaborates closely with other law schools in the Netherlands, and with individual researchers around the world.
