Introducción y objetivos

If Law deals with all the ways we interact, few things connect us in the way that Sport does. In a way, it has become a global language. Such is the power of the Law that regulates it and the professionals who work in it.

After many successful editions, ISDE’s Master in International Sports Law is considered the reference in the sector. It is a full-time Master, which combines lectures sessions on site, where you receive training from the most qualified professionals of the sector, with a second period of internships, in one of the collaborating firms, organisations or clubs.

The excellence of its training speaks volumes about the positions its former students hold today. For this reason, it is not only a training opportunity, it is a gateway into the business and the best opportunity to achieve the Networking and Business Synergies that are essential in this Industry.

TÍTULO ACREDITATIVO

Once the relevant Program has concluded and ISDE has verified that the STUDENT has completed their work satisfactorily, the STUDENT will receive the corresponding Degree certificate for each PROGRAM.

In compliance with current legality and, specifically, as set forth in article 4.4 of decree 84/2004, it is noted that ISDE’s programs are professionally oriented and therefore, unless explicitly stated otherwise, they are courses that do not lead to the acquisition of a title with official value, but to that of a proprietary title from ISDE.
