STUDY AT RGSL / Legal Linguistics
The Riga Graduate School of Law (RGSL) is accepting applications for the MA programme in Legal Linguistics, which is accredited by the Latvian Ministry of Education and Science. The studies begin September 2012.
The programme is a 40-credit (60 ECTS credits), one-year academic master programme for those who have already completed a bachelor’s degree or higher in Law or Philology, or equivalent. The programme is conducted in English. Following successful completion, students are awarded a masters degree (MA) in Legal Linguistics.
The MA in Legal Linguistics aims to study the law and the language, providing lawyers and linguists with relevant interdisciplinary knowledge in both areas. Creating, interpreting, translating and editing a legal text implies multiple sources of knowledge, in particular legal knowledge and linguistic knowledge. The interdisciplinary approach employed by the Legal Linguistics programme enables comparative legal and linguistics analysis in multilingual, national and international contexts.
