Program Chair’s Message
As we embark on our 15th year, the AUA LL.M. program remains committed to the goals of preparing globally aware and competitive professionals for the development of Armenia and the region.
Consistent with our understanding of law as a service profession and public-spirited discipline, we aim to promote fairness and efficiency in the public and private transactions of daily life. Well-trained legal advisers and advocates have an important role to play in promoting economic prosperity and prudent design of laws, regulations, policies and institutions.
We encourage students with the integrity, intelligence, commitment to service and dedication to justice to pursue legal studies at AUA in order to gain the knowledge and practical skills in Armenian, American, European, comparative, and international public and private law necessary for the global market. The AUA LL.M. program affords students the opportunity to design their curriculum to focus on public or private law, or to pursue a general LL.M.
The world keeps changing and the law with it. A lawyer’s education is never done. But lawyers are among the busiest professionals in the world. With AUA’s non-degree student status, it has never been easier to sign-up for one or two courses and continue your education one step at a time. So don’t wait. Our doors are open to qualified students who seek to become and remain globally competitive.
