Choosing NOVA School of Law is to venture into a NEW way of learning to think about Law.
We strive for constant pedagogical innovation, and firmly believe that a jurist in the contemporary world must be able to manage multidiscipliniarity arising from a global and digital world undergoing deep transformation. We fundamentally question the type of Law we have and need to have.
International and technological training is imperative.
We build on sound knowledge, intensifying it with best practice, as we believe in the dialogue between these two realities. And we encourage the development of humanistic jurists, capable of personalised and individualised views, aware of their transformative role in the construction of a more humane, contemporary society, capable of responding positively to the challenges that arise.
Career Paths and Employability
Given the solid training in the legal area, graduates will naturally find placement in areas directly related to Law, whether in the fields of magistracy, academia, arbitration and mediation, or consultancy in legal or tax areas.
The breadth of knowledge that the Law degree encompasses, and the multidisciplinary nature of training at NOVA, places college graduates at the forefront of professions, not only of those directly associated with Law, but of those for which Law training is an important complement, such as careers in international organisations and NGOs, diplomacy, business management, communication consultancy and journalism.
The law degree is highly relevant for those wishing to pursue a career in government or public administration, appealing particularly to students looking for careers in the field of Security and Defense.
In order to deepen students’ curricular experience, strategies have been developed that include curricular internships, internships and international experiences, agreements with recruiting entities and employability fairs that facilitate the transition to and contact with the labour market in each of the areas of professional development mentioned above.
“Morais Leitão has always taken on a number of students from NOVA School of Law, relying on the many alumni, including lawyer-interns, associates and partners. At NOVA, we especially value multidiscipliniarity and the combination of a solid theoretical background with a pragmatic approach focused on problem solving,” Morais Leitão.
“When we recruit students from NOVA School of Law, they have acquired technical skills in their basic training, and developed behavioural skills such as communication and relationship skills, initiative, autonomy and a sense of responsibility,” PWC | Human Capital.
