Master's Degree in Notarial Law

  • Academic Director: Mélanie Jaoul

The Master’s in Notarial Law is designed to prepare students for specific professions: careers in the notarial profession. All of the courses and the diverse composition of the faculty are designed to support the program’s professional orientation. This objective is furthered by a very precise focus on career opportunities and by established contacts with regional and national notarial professional bodies (as evidenced, for example, by the annual symposium organized in collaboration with ARNU: Association Rapprochement Notariat-Université).
