Corporate Law in Germany – History Check 

Corporate Law in Germany – History Check

When the business law degree program was introduced at some universities of applied sciences in Germany in 1993, it was a novelty. Until then, there had been no explicit linking of economics content with legal issues. While students of classical law degree programmes complete a legal preparatory service after their first state examination and can work as lawyers or judges after the second state examination, the business law degree programme specifically prepares students for a career in management and in legal departments of companies. For this reason, students in this interdisciplinary degree program are not only taught business and law lectures, but are also taught soft skills, such as public speaking skills.
