Introduction
This Masters Programme offers students the opportunity to obtain the necessary legal training to face, with maximum guarantees, the different challenges of the current and future legal framework, putting at their disposal the necessary knowledge and training tools to enable them to operate in this market.

MODULE I - INTRODUCTION
A detailed analysis of the main aspects of law related to sport will be carried out so that students can subsequently understand the current legal and social framework in this regard. Likewise, in this first phase we will try to consolidate some fundamental legal concepts and understand the organisation of our industry in the main regions of the world.

We will study both national and international sports institutions, focusing on those organisations that are directly related to the world of football: FIFA, UEFA, EPFL, LaLiga and ECA.
MODULE III - LEGAL ASPECTS APPLIED TO SPORT
We will carefully examine the particularities of each of the main fields of law affecting sport, namely labour law, commercial law, tax law, Audiovisual Media Services regulations, Regulatory Compliance and National and International Federative Regulations and so on, through work sessions and case studies reflecting the real quandaries of this sector.
MODULE IV - CONFLICTS RESOLUTION
We will explain in detail the different mechanisms available for conflict resolution, paying special attention to the preparation of proceedings before the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

MODULE V - SUPPLEMENTRY REGULATIONS

MODULE VI - REGULATION OF OTHER SPORTS
Students will learn about the legal aspects that regulate the operation of other sports, which, despite not having the leading role of football, have sufficient business volume to offer new professional opportunities.
MODULE VII - NEW DEVELOPMENT AREAS
We will study in depth the growing areas of sport, such as women's football and eSports. Likewise, we will also conduct teaching sessions to familiarize students with other subjects, which, regardless of their lack of strictly legal content, are fundamental to understand the new perspective of our business: digital strategy, corporate social responsibility or new communication techniques.
