Programme to analyse the EU from a historical, political, economic and legal point of view
The main characteristic of the Master's Degree in European Union Law and Policy is the training in the various subjects developed by the European Union, mainly focused on its political, legal, institutional, economic, social, educational and cultural aspects.
It is, therefore, an interdisciplinary Master's Degree as it includes a wide selection of subjects taught by prestigious personalities, including a select group of expert lecturers in Law, Economics and Social Sciences, together with Jean Monnet Professors, as well as the collaboration of personalities who have held relevant positions in the European Institutions, Parliament, Commission and Court of Justice, Economic and Social Committee, Committee of the Regions, Court of Auditors and the European Central Bank.
In a globalised world where legal decisions transcend borders, the Master's Degree in European Union Law at Nebrija University is an essential academic pillar for jurists who aspire to lead in the field of supranational law. This programme, designed with rigour and practical vision, not only delves into the European regulatory framework, but also explores its tangible impact on national legal systems, the global economy and the fundamental rights of citizens.
Why specialise in EU law?
The European Union shapes one of the most complex and influential legal orders on the planet. Its guidelines impact critical sectors: from the single market and business competition to data protection, environmental sustainability and the defence of human rights. Mastering this legal framework is now an indispensable competitive advantage for:
-Lawyers litigating in national and international courts.
-Public officials in Spanish and European institutions
-Strategic consultants in multinational companies
-Researchers and academics in comparative law

"At Nebrija we don't just teach rules; we teach how to anticipate global challenges. How? With professors who litigate in the European Court of Justice, simulations of EU negotiations in our classrooms, and internships in institutions where our students write reports that later reach Brussels. Those who choose this Master seek to transform realities: lawyers defending digital rights in startups, civil servants designing migration policies, consultants unblocking cross-border mergers. That is why our commitment goes beyond the classroom: it is a network of opportunities that connects Madrid with Luxembourg, Strasbourg and beyond".
