A European Law Degree with

Global Ιmpact

The LL.B. at Aristotle University is a rigorous, career-oriented law degree designed for the demands of global legal practice.

Grounded in the civil law tradition and enriched by comparative, European, and international perspectives, this is not an abstract exercise in legal philosophy. It is a programme built to prepare you for the world as it is.

Why Study

With Us

There are many places to study law. What makes this programme different is the combination of institutional weight, academic depth, and forward-looking design.

A nationally recognised

EU degree

Your LL.B. is awarded by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, a public university of the Hellenic Republic, and carries the full weight of a national degree recognised across the European Union. It is issued by one of Europe’s largest and most established universities, with over a century of academic tradition.
The curriculum covers the full range of legal science, from constitutional and private law to international economic law, digital law, and AI regulation. You graduate with the analytical foundations of a traditional law degree and the contemporary knowledge that employers are looking for.

Doctrinal depth meets

modern legal practice

Faculty with

international standing

Your courses are developed and taught by the Faculty’s own academic staff, scholars who publish internationally, advise governments and institutions, and bring real-world expertise into the classroom. This is not outsourced teaching.

The programme is anchored in the continental civil law tradition but offers a dedicated common law elective track (Contract, Tort, Property, Equity & Trusts). Graduates gain an understanding both systems, a rare advantage in cross-border legal practice.

Civil law and common law

under one roof

AI-integrated

learning

This is the first LL.B. in Europe to integrate a pioneering AI-driven teaching assistant for real-time comparative legal analysis, complementing lectures with deeper interactivity.
