The law programme targeted at the first legal examination (Erste Juristische Prüfung / Staatsexamen) integrates the possibility of obtaining a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) if the modules of the first six terms and the university specialization examination of the law studies targeted at the first legal examination are successfully completed. Afterwards the student can continue within the study framework of the first legal examination or opt out for the study of related consecutive master's programmes or even for a professional career.

Please note: To qualify for some legal professions e.g. judge, laywer, notary or state attorney in Germany, you have to complete the law programme targeted at the first legal examination, take a state governed legal traineeship completed with another legal examination after two years.
