Hi everybody!
This year I'm graduating in Bulgaria (law) and I'm choosing now where to apply for my masters. I'm interested in European law and I want to work around Europe (my boyfriend is a Portuguese, so we're searching how to overcome the distance in the future) I'm searching for programs in English with good career prospects after graduation. (I've also started studying French, but it's still a long time till I have a good command on the language).
The universities I've been contemplating about till now are: Leuven (Belgium), Vienna, Maastricht, Amsterdam and Catholica University Lisbon (I'd be especially grateful for any comments on the last one, because on paper their program in global law sounds great, but I've not stumbled about anything more specific about how the employers view a diploma from there).
Any opinions and/or other suggestions?
I really wanted to try in France, too, but till now I've not been able to find a suitable and renowned program in English, everything good is taught only in French. If you can suggest something in France, too, I'd be really grateful!
Help in choosing where to study

Hi Michelle,
Have you considered the Master of Business, Competition and Regulatory in Berlin? (Disclosure: PhD candidate at their programme). Taught in English, lecturers from all around the world and with their focus career prospects are pretty good ;-)
Best from Berlin,
Dominik
(ps: No french, though :( )

Hi! In the end, I chose KU Leuven. As for Catolica, I have heard from colleagues that the programme is truely good and demanding. However, the university is still not widely recognised in the rankings and this should be kept in mind. Good luck!
