General description
The degree programs provide students with legal knowledge, the skills to analyze the legal system and the ability to reflect on the basic principles and content of legal normativity and jurisprudence. They illustrate the scientific and social importance of law and the responsibility that lawyers bear.
The Bachelor’s degree
program focuses on basic knowledge and the ability to think methodically and scientifically. The study programs require and encourage students to reflect on the material they have been taught. They help them develop essential social skills such as argumentation and communication and the ability to work in a team and interact with other cultures as part of mobility and exchange programs.
Admission requirements
To be admitted to the study program, students must have a federal school-leaving certificate or equivalent qualification. Any student who has been definitively excluded from studies at the Faculty of Law, University of Zurich, or from any other Swiss faculty of law, will no longer be admitted to a program of study in law.

Examination and assessment regulations
Each module is concluded with a student assessment.
Performance is graded on a scale from 1 to 6, with 6 denoting the highest and 1 the lowest grade. Half grades are permitted. A grade below 4 indicates insufficient performance.
Performance can also be graded on a „pass“ or „fail“ basis.
Post-graduate degree programs

If a student applies for admission to specialist Master’s degree programmes, the faculty may request evidence of additional skills not acquired within the relevant Bachelor’s degree programme.
