Multidisciplinary, the Liège Faculty of Law and Political Science brings together the departments of Law and Political Science. The Liège Jean Constant Criminology School is also attached to it.

On the strength of a 100 teachers and some sixty assistants it welcomes around 1800 students in the first, second and third cycles.

If, within each of its branches, it aims to cultivate a humanist education for its students, opening them up to disciplines on the peripheries of their basic choices, the accent is also placed, from the very first year, on a teaching which is profession orientated in the sector concerned.

Putting the accent on research, as the University of Liège itself does, the Faculty has for a long time also cultivated its anchoring in the international community by welcoming numerous foreign students and teachers, as well as encouraging the mobility of its own students.

Situated at the heart of the Greater region, the University campus finds itself some fifteen minutes from the centre of Liège, a multicultural city whose various well known strengths have notably earned it the well deserved nickname, ‘the passionate city.'
