About the School

Your University is Viadrina!

The Viadrina is situated at the heart of Europe – internationality is its trademark. Its students and instructors hail from over 80 countries. It should come as no surprise that students have the opportunity to take foreign language courses at the university’s language center and study or complete internships abroad.

One Program, three Degree Options

The IHL program allows for the possibility of three degree types: the first being an LL.M. program (90 ECTS) which can be done in both a full-time or part-time fashion; a Diploma program (60 ECTS) which will follow the same courses for two-semester worth, but will be shorter without the need to complete a thesis and an internship; and the last would be certificate program (30 ECTS) which will allow for even more concise curriculum consisting of one semester worth of courses, but still with the ability to specialize in a specific area.

Good Guidance means great Success

We offer small class sizes and personalized service. The learning environment at the Viadrina is excellent and features small class sizes, direct contact with academic staff, personalized student services, internship opportunities, and career planning assistance. The Viadrina provides an atmosphere where students can prepare for their exams in peace, graduate in a timely manner, and prepare for their entry into professional life. Welcome to the Viadrina Family!
