The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Law Faculty (HUL) offers an LL.M. program in English, focusing on Human Rights and International Law. These are fields that constitute an important part of the HUL’s long-standing reputation of academic excellence, and in which the HUL is a hub of international activity.

The program is run in cooperation with the Rothberg International School and the Minerva Center for Human Rights of the Law Faculty.

 

The LL.M. programs consist of 32 credits taken over two consecutive semesters, including four core courses, a workshop, seminars, electives courses and background courses. In addition, students may choose to submit an LL.M. thesis.  

 

The LL.M. programs in English are open to law school graduates holding an LL.B. or J.D. degree who have a good command of English. Candidates are selected on the basis of their law school grades, letters of recommendation and past academic work.

Knowledge of English: Candidates who did not previously study at an educational institution in which the sole language of instruction is English must submit official TOEFL scores or the equivalent.

The minimum TOEFL score required is 573 on the paper-based test, 230 on the computer-based test, or 89 on the internet-based test.

Applicants who have completed a full course of study at an institution where the sole language of instruction is English, or who completed a degree program in English Language and/or Literature may be exempt from submitting English proficiency scores.
