02.09.2010: Review of the EMLE program in Israeli economic newspaper

The Israeli economic newspaper "The Marker" (Haaretz) gave a wonderful
review of the EMLE program, in an article reviewing all of the
international LLM programs in Israel.

Unfortunately the article is in Hebrew. But here is short summary. It
starts by stating that:

"Four Israeli educational institutions offer Master degree tracks
which combine studying abroad. But the examination of Haaretz reveals
that except for two cosmopolitan programs at the University of Haifa,
the other Master programs in law, offered by other universities, offer
only a short sample (of no more than few weeks) in foreign university,
during the summer."

Later in a long review of the EMLE program the paper states that:

"The most elitist integrated Master program is called "European Master
in Law & Economics". Haifa law school is a partner of this program
with leading universities in Europe, and this is the only Master
program in recognized by the EU commission."

Later the article gives details of the structure of the program,
listing some of the partners (Bologna, Gent and Hamburg) and even
adding pictures of some of the students from last year.

Student Voices


"This LL.M. is definitely a first-class Master. Thanks to a nice, accessible and high calibre faculty coming from all over Europe and abroad, as well as very bright students fellows, the EMLE programme is though-provoking and pushes for students to continuously score off. In this respect, the programme is very challenging academically.

Last but not least, beyond a strong academic interest for this programme, this year was culturally one of the richest of my life. Indeed,  I had the great opportunity to travel and study between three European countries and meet wonderful students from all over the world  whith whom I built strong friendships.

Even before finishing the LL.M., I was offered the opportunity to pursue a Ph.D in European Law and Economics at the University of Paris II, an opportunity that I was happy to accept."
