Master Law & Technology
The most prominent program linked to TILT is the Master's program in Law & Technology. Within this program the impacts of technology are studied from legal, ethical, political, technical and societal perspectives, raising questions about the need, desirability and preferred modality of regulation to mitigate the possible negative impacts of technological change on society.

Class of 2021What drew you to the L.LM. in Law & Technology?
“Before coming to Tilburg, I was an M&A lawyer in India for about three and a half years. I enjoyed being an M&A lawyer, but I wanted to specialize in privacy, data protection and technology laws. The courses I am taking here help prepare me for my aspirations to be a policy advisor.”
