Master of Law
M.HThe Master of Law Study Program at Universitas Batam is designed to produce professional graduates, academics, and legal reformers who are critical, innovative, and capable of responding to contemporary legal challenges. The programme equips students with advanced analytical skills grounded in legal theory and research methodologies to address increasingly complex legal issues in the modern era. To support this objective, the Master of Law Study Program utilises information and communication technology (ICT)-based information systems in developing competency-based academic policies and best practices. The programme also implements a dynamic learning process aligned with the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, providing opportunities for students and the entire academic community to develop their talents, interests, and creativity. The graduate profile is developed through an Outcome-Based Education (OBE) curriculum. The process begins with an analysis of stakeholder needs—including employers, government institutions, and society—to formulate the Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) and Programme Learning Outcomes (PLOs). These outcomes serve as the foundation for designing the curriculum structure, learning content, and assessment methods, ensuring that graduates acquire the competencies required through a process of continuous quality improvement. In today's era of globalisation and free trade, the industrial and commercial sectors face increasingly complex challenges that demand high levels of competitiveness and efficiency. Human resources therefore play a strategic role as a key driver of national and international development. In response to these challenges, the Master of Law Study Program actively promotes inclusiveness through collaborative partnerships with various institutions to advance legal scholarship founded on neutral, objective, and universal legal principles.
