The research focus of the faculty members ranges from basic questions of modern statehood to civil and criminal law perspectives of commercial law to current challenges of digitalisation.
Since the issues studied here are largely characterised by international relevance, EBS Law School draws on a comprehensive network of partner faculties - both subject-related, through associations such as the Law Schools Global League, and interdisciplinary, in cooperation with EBS Business School.
