Business Law Studies
Majoring in business law provides comprehensive understanding of legislation and the ability to make sustainable strategic decisions.
Business Law
Business law is taught at the Department of Accounting and Business Law, part of the Aalto University School of Business and one of the leading research institutions in the field in the Nordic countries. We conduct high-quality research in business law, actively contribute to society, and offer top-tier education at the bachelor's, master's and doctoral levels.
Business Law Research
Research in business law focuses on the study of legislation and legal institutions that govern business activities.
Impact
We impact society by supporting decision-making, participating in public discussions, and providing guidance and education.
Business law integrates legal and business expertise
Business law merges legal and business knowledge. Our research typically focuses on topics such as corporate regulation and taxation, and how these can be leveraged to enhance corporate competitiveness and sustainability.
Business law expertise and research can be applied broadly in business and policy decision-making, regulatory needs, and even in non-governmental organizations. Graduates in business law gain versatile skills for leadership and expert roles, finding employment in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors.
