Integrated LL.B. and State Examination Program in Law

The integrated program in Law (LL.B. / state examination) at the University of Mannheim trains students to become lawyers who are qualified in Business Administration and Economics.

The focus during phase one, the bachelor’s degree in Business Law, is placed upon civil law, business law and economic law. Modules in law represent approximately 60 percent of the integrated program and also cover material that is mandatory for the state examination. Modules in Business Administration and Economicsaccount for a further 30 percent of the program, with focus placed on business administration. For this part of the program, you can choose between specializing in tax and accounting, or human resources. Finally, students take modules to develop soft skills, such as presentation techniques and negotiation management.

Phase two, the state examination, is completed during four additional semesters of study. During this phase, students learn about public law and criminal law – this content is mandatory for the state examination. Upon completion of phase one, the bachelor’s degree in Business Law, students are automatically admitted to phase two, the state examination, without having to take part in an admissions process.
