Candidates applying for the Master of Laws must have a bachelor's degree in the National Education Sequence University, which is not limited to undergraduate majors (but most of the actual candidates are law undergraduates), and non-undergraduate students with the same degree are not recruited.
To apply for a master's degree in law, you must have a bachelor's degree in national education (or equivalent), and undergraduate graduates with equivalent academic qualifications must work for more than two years; University graduates with equivalent education must work for more than three years. (Since 2009, law graduates have been allowed to apply for the Master of Laws. )
2. Different teaching and training methods:
The master of law adopts the tutorial system, and each student will be assigned a tutor (professor or associate professor) when he first enters the school. During the study period, he can get constant guidance from the tutor, focusing on theoretical teaching and supplemented by practical teaching. The latter has much less time than the Master of Laws.
Most LLM are not professional and adopt "double tutorial system" or teaching and research group teaching system. Based on the principle of practical application, practice is the first, and the teaching concept of theoretical study and practical operation is implemented.
Three different educational systems:
The general learning cycle of LLM is 3-4 years, and 3 years is more common.
There are two types of master of laws. The study period of Master of Laws (illegal science) is usually three years, while the study period of Master of Laws (law) is generally two years, two and a half years and three years.
Extended data:
"Law" in the professional degree of Master of Laws refers to the professional field, a professional degree with a specific legal background, and a professional degree for cultivating high-level legal practice professionals. Characterized in that:
First, it is a professional degree. Although it is at the same level and has the same specifications as the master's degree in law, it has different types and different emphases. According to the training plan, the professional degree of master of laws mainly trains specialized talents for intermediate and above professional and management positions in legal practice departments.
The second is a professional degree with a legal professional background. This makes it different from other professional degrees, such as MBA or MPA.
Third, it is an advanced degree. This is determined by the characteristics of the legal profession, and the training goal of this degree is to be competent in legal practice. It is required to meet the "post requirements of intermediate or above (including intermediate) majors and management positions in actual departments".
In other words, its talent training goal is different from the training goal of undergraduate education in law, but a high-level degree that reaches the level of master's degree.
The training goal of LLM is to conduct more in-depth research on various majors under the discipline of law with teaching and learning as the direction. The master of law is oriented to practical application and practice, mainly for the lawyer industry and legal affairs.
In terms of employment and qualification examination, Master of Laws has great advantages, such as civil service examination. Some public security departments only recruit master of law, and master of law cannot apply for it. The passing rate of the national judicial examination also far exceeds that of the Master of Laws.
