The Master's in Law (Maîtrise en droit), concentration in labour law, at Université du Québec à Montréal deepens students' knowledge of labour law within a broader program covering international law, labour law, and other legal fields, while developing an interdisciplinary capacity to analyze the dynamic links between law and its social environment. The program is offered with a thesis profile (avec mémoire) and a non-thesis profile (sans mémoire), each totalling 45 credits and completed over a nominal two years full-time or four years part-time, with courses offered in the evening; some course sections are offered online. Admission for the Montreal concentrations, including labour law, is at the fall and winter terms. Admission requires a bachelor's degree in law, or the equivalent, completed with a cumulative average of at least 3.2 on a 4.3 scale; a bachelor's degree in another discipline with the same average, or at least two years of relevant full-time professional experience, is also accepted. Applicants must submit a complete curriculum vitae, a two-to-three-page statement of academic and professional objectives, and two letters of recommendation, and must have sufficient oral and written French and sufficient written English.
