This programme has been running as Business and Trade Law for quite a few years and students are very positive about the programme. You might want to check our online newsletters where alumni share their experiences and tell how this ll.m. programme has helped them in finding a good job. The programme is renamed to BCML this year as Maritime Law is a new specialisation within the programme. As far as the level of this programme: in the Netherlands we have a 3 year Bachelor programme, then a 1 year Master (which we call Master level) and then students can continue with our post academic programmes such as BCML. We look forward to meeting you in September!

The Dutch Bar requires a total of 200 ECTS can you provide information on whether BCML entitles admission in BAR ? Kind Regards Thu, 12 Jun 2008 08:19:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/32473/last#48264 Hello, The BCML programme comprises 60 ects (which is standard). In Holland you will only get access to the bar if you have both a Bachelor Degree in Law (180 ects) and a Master (60 etcs) (called: Civiel Effect).
