About the School

The School of General and Interdisciplinary Legal Studies was established in 2018 with the merger of several leading departments of the Faculty of Law. The School’s faculty currently includes several dozen highly qualified specialists in various fields of law, including legal theory, history of law, philosophy of law, and comparative law.

Our mission is to teach legal disciplines at HSE at the level of the world's leading universities, taking into account specific students’ majors in various educational programmes.

The School actively participates in the implementation of several bachelor’s and master’s programmes at HSE. Such bachelor’s programmes include ‘Law’ and ‘Private Law’.

The master’s programmes include:

  • Law: Research Programme (Previously, Master's in History, Theory, and Philosophy of Law); 
  • other master's programs in the direction of "Jurisprudence" (adaptation disciplines, elective courses).

The School’s unique approach to legal research, which features the synergy of national and international law, elements of comparative law, as well as a combination of theory and law enforcement practice analysis help the school faculty to actively implement the programmes. The school staff successfully combine teaching and research activity, as well as communication with  government bodies, international organizations, and business structures, which helps them not only provide students with a fundamental legal education, but also to involve them in active scholarly and project work.
