One course credit may be obtained by attending a 14 x 50-minute course and complying with the assessment requirements for that course. The IBL LL.M. long thesis is worth 3 credits out of the total 24 credits. Students writing a long thesis shall complete 21 course (class) credits and will obtain 3 credits from their thesis.

For the mandatory courses, IBL LL.M. students receive a total of 4 credits at the end of the academic year. Accordingly, IBL LL.M. students shall take additional 20 (including restricted elective courses) during the academic year if they submit a short thesis, or 17 additional credits if they submit a long thesis.
