The international focus of the University of Passau, and particularly the Faculty of Law, is one of our key strengths as well as a significant reason why our University is so attractive for students from all over Germany.
The Faculty of Law makes it possible for students to complete part of their study abroad, as well as offering a multitude of international study options right here on campus.
We are the only German higher education institution to offer its students the opportunity to gain a Certificate of Higher Education in Common Law and a Bachelor of Laws from the University of London.
