ELBBL prioritizes and strives to enhance our students’ ability to research, analyze, and write effective legal arguments through four compulsory courses. Students are taught legal methods, deductive and inductive legal reasoning, case briefing, making legal arguments, and writing legal memos. In our moot court programs, under the careful supervision of our committed coaches, students are required to draft memorials and plead on a highly complex case. Upon their graduation from the program, students will become effective legal researchers, lawyers, and other professionals.

As part of ELBBL, the Center for the Study of Humanitarian Law (CSHL), supported by the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law (RWI), produces research papers and provides training related to public international law, transitional justice, international humanitarian law, human rights law, and fair trial rights principles. CSHL provides RULE students with a friendly and supportive research space, textbooks, and online resources.

ELBBL students have access to the RULE law library, an e-research center, and a computer lab. Students will have the necessary study space and materials for conducting research. Students can also participate in a variety of webinars and other online learning opportunities organized by ELBBL and its partners.
