A quality research environment

Objectives

The DSL offers a quality research environment, assuring the best conditions for an advanced training of doctoral candidates in law at the University of Luxembourg. Through its research and training programmes, the University fosters an open-minded approach to legal analysis, going beyond the boundaries of national jurisdictions, to promote comparative cross-disciplinary research, within a multilingual environment and an international academic team.

The DS offers both theoretical and practical training, providing a useful background for writing a thesis and adopting a broad scientific culture. The training aims to equip doctoral students with the necessary epistemological and methodological tools for pursuing a rigorous research project and introduce them to a cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary culture.

The DSL aims to achieve the following objectives:

• To support and enhance the legal education of doctoral students,
• To advance and build upon current research methodology,
• To cultivate an academic culture and an open-minded mentality among doctoral students in the framework of a cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary approach,
• To promote immersion in different legal cultures.
