Beroepsperspectief / arbeidsmarkt
There is a growing demand, both in the governmental and wider public sector as well as private practice, for talented law graduates who are capable of looking beyond the boundaries of national criminal law and policy. The unique knowledge and skillset developed through the LLM in European Criminal Justice programme creates a path for graduates to work in diverse and wide-ranging areas of law and/or administration. You could find yourself working in legal practice at a national or European level, or in a wider international context. Our graduates are well suited to life in European or international organisations, but also meet the requirements of the ‘civiel effect’ covenant in the Netherlands. This opens up multiple opportunities to apply their skills in legal and/or administrative practice at national level. From the public prosecutor’s office summoning a foreign witness, to a private defence lawyer using the EU directive on the presumption of innocence to support their argument in a national criminal case,to a law clerk or a judget at a national court, the unique insight you stand to gain during your studies is increasingly sought-after by employers.
