The programme of the Master en droit à horaire décalé aims to help people already working to acquire the precise legal knowledge attested to by the award of a university degree leading to the same legal professions as the Master en droit (day classes).
This master is professional training par excellence. 

As such, it is unique in the Belgian French community and allows students who have taken the Baccalauréat en droit à horaire décalé at the FUSL to perfect their training..

After three years' baccalauréat,the Master en droit programme has the dual objective of adding to the student's general training with training in key subjects (core courses) and helping him to specialise in subjects more specifically related to his future professional practice (focus and optional courses). The specialisation arises from the student choosing freely between the coherent sets of subjects.

The balance between general and specialised training should help the student acquire legal skills of a highly technical nature backed up by critical and analytical skills.

In line with the decree, the Master en droit à horaire décalé amounts to a minimum of 120 credits, spread out over two years of study, each corresponding to 60 credits.
For the student, the programme is made up of four broad, coherent sections: core courses (53 credits), a dissertation (and accompanying seminar : 17 credits), a focus (30 credits) and optional courses (20 credits).
Due to the cost of the programme and the availability of the teachers, the Master en droit à horaire décalé is divided into biennial teaching modules (module A and module B). Students in Master 1 and Master 2 take the organised module during the academic year in which they are enrolled.
The first module consists of four core courses and three focus courses.
The second module consists of the three other core courses and the three other focus courses. Added to this is an optional course.
In addition to the module (A or B, depending on the academic year in which he is enrolled), the Master 1 student undertakes practical work, an option totalling 15 credits (or three optional courses) and a seminar accompanying the dissertation.
In addition to the module (A or B, depending on the academic year in which he is enrolled), the Master 2 student undertakes practical work and writes a dissertation.
Consult the composition of the modules.

Specific procedures :

Students with a Baccalauréat en droit à horaire décalé organised by the Facultés universitaires Saint-Louis are admitted to the Master en droit à horaire décalé, without submitting their application file to the Faculté de droit.
Students from a programme of study other than the first cycle in droit à horaire décalé are asked to submit an application file for the Master en droit à horaire décalé. Applications must be addressed to the Secrétariat administratif de la Faculté de droit (Place Montesquieu, 2 – 1348 Louvain-la-Neuve), by 15 September, 2008. The file must contain documents which prove the student has passed his Baccalauréat en droit, an application letter and a attestation de l’employeur (employer reference).
The Master en droit à horaire décalé is aimed at people who are already working and not students who are no longer permitted to pursue their studies during the day (TER students, for example).

• The 'dossiers de demande de validation des acquis de l’expérience' (VAE files, verifying acquired experience) must be sent to the academic secretary.
• Files requesting admission to the degree equivalence programme must be sent to the academic secretary.

 

• Same mandatory subjects as the day course Master en droit
• General professional focus
• Access to numerous optional courses

The inevitable reduction of the number of hours of courses is made up for by a large amount of homework for the student (expressed in credits).

 

• Written or oral exams
• Continuous assessment and written production in the practical exercises
