Teaching & Structure

The LL.M. AWArDS combines the excellence of academics and practitioners in the field of international and investment arbitration (lawyers, counsels, arbitrators, quantum experts, managers of third-party funders, artificial intelligence researchers, etc.).

Courses are delivered in the heart of Paris (at the Institut de droit comparé and prominent law firms).

The program covers both international arbitration and investment arbitration. It combines the French perspective with a comparative approach. It also deepens other core aspects of dispute resolution mechanisms: mediation, negotiation, settlement agreements, international business litigation, etc.

Core objectives:

• To master the fundamental elements of both international arbitration and investment arbitration.
• To comprehend the relationship between arbitral proceedings and state courts.
• To broaden the understanding of international arbitration from a comparative perspective.
• To acquire indispensable knowledge from international arbitration and litigation practitioners (drafting clauses, briefs, pleadings, evidence, examinations, and cross-examinations, establishing the quantum of damages, etc.)
• To understand the functioning and distinctive features of the main arbitration centers and their rules.

The LL.M. program is offered in Paris, one of the most prominent international arbitration venues, internationally recognized as such.

The curriculum achieves the proper balance between an academic approach and a more empirical and practical approach to confront students, as prospective arbitration practitioners, with the complex realities of this multifaceted field of practice.
