Best Law Schools in Europe

EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in Europe ranked based on their research performance in Law. A graph of 147M citations received by 5.79M academic papers made by 1,438 universities in Europe was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
