The IUC offers two Degree Programs, a one year Master of Laws (LLM) and a two year Master of Science Degree (MSc).  The curriculum is intended to provide students with a truly interdisciplinary and comparative approach to law, economics and finance.

The Institute aims to foster a research-based forum for innovative collaboration and consultant research by emerging and established scholars and practitioners from diverse geography, ideology and disciplinary perspectives to address the growing challenges facing the hegemony of global liberalism.
