Originally centred on French business law, its programmes have progressively expanded to encompass European and international legal frameworks, while maintaining a strong emphasis on both technical expertise and ethical responsibility.<\/p><p>The IDA is dedicated to advancing education and research in business law while fostering innovative, learner-centred teaching approaches that promote critical thinking, international perspectives and professional development. Through close collaboration with the socio-economic sector and a strong network of academic and professional partners, the Institute offers opportunities for dual-degree programmes and prepares students for legal careers in France and abroad.<\/p><p>Its teaching and research examine the legal environment of business in its broadest sense, taking into account the economic, geopolitical and technological forces that increasingly shape commercial activity.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Business Law Programmes<\/h2><div class=\"wp-block-cross-content js-fade-scroll\">\n    <p class=\"wp-block-cross-content-title\"><\/p>\n            <div class=\"row wp-block-cross-content-row\">\n                                <div class=\"column small-12 medium-6 large-4 wp-block-cross-content-col\">\n                        <a class=\"wp-block-cross-content-top\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ucly.fr\/academics\/our-programmes\/llm-international-business-law-master1\/\" title=\"LL.M. in International Business Law (Master 1)\">\n                            <span class=\"wp-block-cross-content-name\">LL.M. in International Business Law (Master 1)<\/span>\n                            <span class=\"wp-block-cross-content-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ucly.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/llm-business-630x570.jpg\" class=\" wp-post-image\" alt=\"Etudiants sautant avec des drapeaux\" \/><\/span>\n                            <span class=\"wp-block-cross-content-more\">\n                                <span class=\"icon-more\"><\/span>\n                            <\/span>\n                        <\/a>\n                        <div class=\"wp-block-cross-content-excerpt\"><p>This English taught program is opened to law graduates wishing to develop a career in international business law and cover major existing negotiated European and multilateral trade and investment agreements and their interaction with the WTO with a particular focus on the European Union.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                                <div class=\"column small-12 medium-6 large-4 wp-block-cross-content-col\">\n                        <a class=\"wp-block-cross-content-top\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ucly.fr\/academics\/our-programmes\/llm-in-international-trade-investment-law-master-2\/\" title=\"LL.M. in European and International Trade &#038;
