“The European Master in Law and Economics (EMLE) program offers the unique opportunity to study at two or three European universities. It provides students with advanced knowledge on the economic effects of divergent laws and prepares them for a career in public organizations or multinational law firms. Each participating university awards an LL.M. degree or a master degree which is equivalent to an LL.M. The EMLE program has received the Erasmus Mundus label, along with only 18 other masters courses. One of the implications of the Erasmus Mundus label is that the EMLE programme is able to grant student scholarships annually to about 25 third country students, and also scholarships for 10 European students are available.”
