Student pictureTestimonial: Matthias Vierstraete

"I felt the need to gain a better understanding of the regulations and legal issues in the field of ICT and Media Law, as the IP practice I had been working in for two years had evolved more and more towards ICT law.
The Postgraduate Studies in ICT and Media Law at the KUL allowed me to become more familiar with certain of the more complex topics in these rapidly evolving domains.
Not only the purely legal modules, but also the technical courses lectured by specialists gave me fundamental insights, which have already proven their use in practice.
The courses are structured in such a way that there is a good balance between the theory and the practical application thereof.
The visiting lecturers, professors and researchers at ICRI are very approachable.
The flexibility that is possible is much appreciated, especially when combining the Postgraduate Studies with a full-time job.
