Professor Wanda Mastor, Head of the European School of Law (ESL) commented; “Working with Bangor has been a pleasure for us, our students love their time in Bangor, and find the Welsh experience both enriching as well as intellectually stimulating – finding a highly internationalised boutique law school among the Welsh mountains has a touch of magic about it! We are delighted that the programme is attracting many applications as French students increasingly see their future as one that requires them to see a wider world."
