Overview

The Bachelor of Laws is a three-year general education program whose primary objective is to provide students with a solid foundation of knowledge and skills in law, while allowing them to specialize starting in the third year through “track” courses and then “elective” courses in private law or public law.

It prepares students either for a professional specialization at the master's level or for immediate entry into the workforce.

The ELAN L1 Program: A Support Program for Academic Success. This program involves extending the bachelor’s degree program by one year and includes support modules (refresher courses in written and oral communication, history, general knowledge, and academic methodology). This program is offered to students who are at risk of encountering difficulties, as identified by the Parcoursup application review committee.


The Bachelor’s Degree in Law can be pursued as a “General Bachelor’s Degree with a Health Care Track” (L.A.S.). A “health minor” then replaces certain courses in the Bachelor’s in Law program to allow students to either enter the second year of a health studies program in the MMOP track (Medicine, Midwifery, Dentistry, and Pharmacy) or continue their legal studies.
