Presentation
The Master's program trains lawyers specializing in public business law, particularly in public contract law and partnership relations involving public entities.
The first year of the Master's program allows students to master the fundamentals of public business law while furthering their education in general public law.
The program is organized into two consecutive semesters, for a total of more than 500 hours of instruction, divided between theoretical courses taught primarily by academics (40%) and coursework supervised by recognized professionals (60%).
