Cross-cutting activities School of Law

At Graduate School of Law each year we offer two cross-cutting activities with the aim of improving some of the soft skills of our students that are not part of their hard knowledge training of each Program. Specifically, we focus on searching legal databases, improving the presence in social networks through the acquisition of appropriate capabilities to write CV or Bios, or fostering networks and job seeking with prestigious companies and institutions.

Finally, with these activities we encourage students of the different Master Programs of the School to interrelate with each other and get to know each other by creating a social network that serves for present and future.
