Admissions

Each year, a limited number of students is admitted to the Master's Honours Research Track; only students enrolled at the Faculty of Law can apply. Students are selected on the basis of their motivation, their research interest and above-average grades. You can apply for the programme by submitting:

• your CV
• a letter of motivation
• your academic transcript (incl. period 1 grades) and
• an example of your legal writing (in English, for instance a paper or thesis written at the bachelor’s stage).

Please send your documents to: law-mhrt@maastrichtuniversity.nl.

Students enrolled in the two-year master’s programme in International Laws can also take part in the Honours programme. They can spend their third semester abroad taking courses relevant to their research.

Applications have to be submitted no later than Friday 22 November 2024, 23.59 via email to law-mhrt@maastrichtuniversity.nl. After a selection based on the submitted documents, shortlisted candidates will be invited for a selection interview, which will take place on Thursday 12 December 2024, 10.00 - 17.00.

Interested students are welcome to join our information session on Thursday 7 November 2024 at 10.30.  You can register for this session via: law-mhrt@maastrichtuniversity.nl. The location will be announced later.
