INTRODUCTION
Why should you choose the ISDE’s Law Degree?
Studying Law at ISDE is much more than earning a university degree: it is the beginning of building a legal career with real prospects, surrounded by active professionals and connected from day one with law firms, companies, and institutions.
1. You are trained as a solid jurist prepared for the real world: The goal of ISDE’s Bachelor’s Degree in Law is clear: to ensure that you become a well-rounded legal professional, capable of understanding, interpreting, and applying the law in a demanding and constantly evolving environment. You will not only acquire knowledge, but also judgment, rigor, and leadership skills.
2. Practical methodology from the start: At ISDE, you learn law the way it is practiced: combining a strong theoretical foundation with the analysis of real cases, legal argumentation, simulations, and teamwork. The classroom mirrors the law firm, so you begin thinking and working like a lawyer from your first years of study.
3. Top-tier faculty: Your instructors will include active professionals from law firms, corporate legal departments, institutions, and courts, as well as leading academics. This means learning from those who are already where you aspire to be, with training that is up-to-date and fully aligned with practice.
4. Professional internships from the first year: Professional experience is not left for the end. At ISDE, you will undertake internships in law firms and corporate legal departments starting in your first year, allowing you to understand the reality of the sector, develop key competencies, and begin building your professional network.
5. Academic stays at leading universities: You will have the opportunity to enrich your education with study periods at prestigious international universities, helping you understand other legal systems, improve your language skills, and broaden your perspective toward new professional opportunities.
6. A mentor to accompany you throughout your studies: During your studies, you will be assigned a mentor—an experienced professional who will guide you, help you make strategic decisions, and support you in aligning your academic and professional development with your goals. You are not alone; you receive personalized guidance and follow-up.
7. Training focused on the individual and your professional future: At ISDE, education goes beyond legal knowledge. You also develop the skills that truly make a difference: communication, critical thinking, professional ethics, negotiation, and strategic vision. The result: you do not just graduate in Law—you graduate prepared to practice confidently and pursue a successful career.

Why should you study the Master in International Relations and International Advocay simultaneously with the Law Degree?
Imagine your career beyond borders: taking part in international negotiations, working with multilateral organizations, global law firms, NGOs, or multinational companies, and making decisions that have a real impact on the world. ISDE’s Master’s in International Relations and International Advocacy, studied simultaneously with the Bachelor’s Degree in Law over the four years, is designed precisely to shape that kind of profile: jurists with geopolitical insight and a global mindset.
Throughout the program, you will acquire a solid foundation in international relations—geopolitics, diplomacy, international organizations, global trade and security—integrated with international advocacy—public and private international law, international trade, arbitration, and the resolution of transnational disputes. The content becomes progressively more complex so that you develop specialized knowledge that is, above all, directly applicable to the international professional environment.
Leading law firms and international practices actively participate in designing and updating the program, ensuring that you develop the practical, strategic, and digital competencies demanded by today’s global employers. ISDE continues to be a pioneer in connecting academia with the professional world, training individuals who can operate confidently in any international forum and build legal careers with genuine global projection. Here, you don’t just study Law: you prepare to become a key player in the international relations of the future.

Interships start in the first academic year
ISDE, pioneers in matching university to business.
You will make 150 hours of practice each course in the best law firms and offices in Spain. Moreover, the training is always done with an essentially practical view and adjusted to the most common case studies in our courts of justice, doing professional practices from the first year. In this sense, the fact that the Master is taught throughout the career makes this program, exclusive of ISDE, unique in the European teaching offer.
Program
We are pioneers in the participation of the most prestigious national and international firms in the development of the program’s content. ISDE is the only institution in which the firms are an active part. Our students are trained in the knowledge the firms really need through their lawyers, who tell them exactly what they need to know to be hired by them.
They work from the method of the client’s demand, so our students are trained to solve legal conflicts with real cases from the first course. The teachers are collaborating partners, many of them shareholders and board members, who treat the students as if they were their own employees and select them to be part of their teams.

Academic stays
Mandatory
In the last two years, trips are made to the USA and the UK. In these academic trips, ISDE students not only receive training from the faculty of the collaborating universities, but they also live a vital experience that favors their personal growth. ISDE has a series of agreements with prestigious universities in both the US and the UK. Together with ISDE’s academic team, they design the corresponding programs tailored to the international and in-depth training that the institution makes available to students. The content of these programmes is always defined by two main approaches: internationality and excellence. Current issues are approached from a broad perspective and with a participatory system that induces students to form their own opinions and to evaluate the environment that will surround them when they finish their studies and join their professional career
Relatives
Students can join the Erasmus+ programme for long-term university stays in other European countries. ISDE has agreements with universities in Germany, Poland, Bulgaria, Macedonia, France, Italy… that complement the obligatory international stays in the USA and the United Kingdom.

Degree
Once the relevant Program has concluded and ISDE has verified that the STUDENT has completed their work satisfactorily, the STUDENT will receive the corresponding Degree certificate for each PROGRAM.
In compliance with current legality and, specifically, as set forth in article 4.4 of decree 84/2004, it is noted that ISDE’s programs are professionally oriented and therefore, unless explicitly stated otherwise, they are courses that do not lead to the acquisition of a title with official value, but to that of a proprietary title from ISDE.
