IE LAW SCHOOL

IE Law School offers unique

legal programs adapted to

the needs and ambitions

of today’s students. Our

practical, multidisciplinary,

innovative, humanistic

and global approach gives

students the tools to become

leaders and explore the

law through a unique set of

skills to standout and succeed

in a competitive and global

legal market.

A wORD fROM thE DEAn

IE Law School is known for

its cutting-edge approach

to legal education and

for the excellence of its

graduates. Being faithful to

ourselves requires a constant

commitment to innovation to

help our students succeed in a

rapidly changing world.

Legal practice is increasingly

global, multidisciplinary

and technological; the

entrepreneurial movement

is reshaping legal practice in

extraordinary ways and global

society faces challenges of

special kind and consequence.

Lawyers must be ready not just

to adapt to these trends but

also be able and willing to drive

change.

To achieve that aim, our

programs make sure that

students develop the right set

of core skills. A global mind-

set can only be acquired if

students are confronted both

with the need to solve complex,

cross-border legal cases by

working in multidisciplinary

teams within the classroom

and with real exposure to the

practice of law. Developing an

entrepreneurial spirit requires

both mastering technical skills

and applying them to real

projects through a hands-on

approach. The opportunities

that the technology revolution

brings can only be harnessed if

students develop the right set

of skills and learn how to apply

them to make a difference in

the practice of law.

This is why all our programmes,

whether at undergraduate,

postgraduate or executive

education level, follow the

same fundamental vision. We

invite you to explore the school

and experience how innovation

drives the legal world.Javier de Cendra
