In addition, participants complete a substantial thesis and structured research activities that demonstrate independent scholarly capability and applied legal-linguistic expertise.

The standard duration is +12 months (minimum duration), with flexibility allowing participants to extend their study period when needed. The program workload is equivalent to 60 ECTS credits.
