Since the 2012-2013 academic year, the Faculty of Law has offered the dual pathway Law-Public Management and Administration. The aim is to offer students a bachelor's degree in Law, complemented by subjects from the bachelor's degree in Public Management and Administration, which provides essential tools to work in public administration and in the management of public organizations, or in the network of associated private companies. In the dual pathway, students will take all of the compulsory and basic training subjects in the bachelor's degree in Law, which will then be validated with the equivalent subjects in the bachelor's degree in Public Management and Administration.
