About the programme
International Licensing Law is an application-oriented, four-semester Master of Laws (LL.M.) at Hochschule Darmstadt (h_da). It prepares you for all questions of licensing law in the broad sense, mainly in practice and also in research. You gain in-depth knowledge of IT and IP law and the related questions of international, especially Anglo-American, law, with strong international components for communication across borders and at the interface of technology and law. A specialisation in licence management in an international environment is offered. Teaching is in German and partly in English, and the programme starts in the winter semester. Graduates work in legal departments of internationally active IT and media companies, in complex project, contract and licence management, or in public institutions that use electronic administrative procedures, and the degree also opens the way to a doctorate. It suits graduates with a qualified law degree or a first state examination in law.

Prerequisites
The admission requirement for the International Licensing Law program is a relevant and qualified bachelor's or diploma degree or a first state law examination in a field of law.
(2) Degrees from the Information Law programs at Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences or comparable degrees are considered
relevant. Applicants with related but not directly comparable degrees may be admitted upon written application based on an individual review by the examination board with additional requirements, which must be met before or during the master's program by the end of the second semester. The additional requirements are not part of the curriculum and are separately certified in the certificate. If the additional requirements are not met by the deadline,
the applicant will be excluded from further examinations.
(3) The diploma or bachelor's degree is considered qualified if an overall grade of 2.6 or better was achieved. The first state law examination is considered qualified if an overall grade of "satisfactory" (6.5 points) or better was achieved. Applicants who do not achieve an overall grade of 2.6 (diploma or bachelor's degree) or "satisfactory" (6.5 points) (first state law examination), but who have completed the examination with an overall grade of 3.0 (diploma or bachelor's degree) or "sufficient" (5 points) (first state law examination) or better, may be admitted upon written application based on an individual review by the examination board. In this case, the applicant must explain in a timely manner why they nevertheless have sufficient qualifications to begin the master's program. Supporting factors may include, among others:
practical experience in the field of international licensing law, completion of the law degree within the standard period of study, a bachelor's or diploma thesis with a grade of at least 1.3,
above-average voluntary subject-related commitment within and outside of higher education institutions,
a semester abroad with appropriate academic success.
