On Tuesday, November 3, the European Law and Governance University (ELGU) officially launched its LLM in International Trade and Investment Law with an online welcome session for its first cohort of students.
Held as part of the program’s first class, the introductory meeting gave students the opportunity to meet the program team and their lecturer, Dr. Ljubomir Petruljeskov, as they begin their academic journey with ELGU.
Learning from practitioner expertise
Dr. Petruljeskov brings extensive expertise in rule of law, governance, and alternative dispute resolution, built through considerable experience with the International Development Law Organization (IDLO). He will teach two courses in the program: ADR, Mediation and Dispute Prevention in Trade and Investment and Contemporary Issues in Trade and Investment Law and Policy. In both, students will draw on his practical insights and first-hand experience in the field.
A community built on diverse perspectives
A key strength of the program is the way it brings together faculty members with deep academic and practical expertise and students from diverse academic and professional backgrounds. This combination creates a dynamic learning environment, where students engage directly with the evolving challenges of international trade and investment law and learn from one another as much as from their instructors.
The ELGU warmly welcomes its new students and looks forward to an inspiring and rewarding academic year together.
