Law Scholarship Program

LAW SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

At IE University

The most prestigious international law firms have shown their solid support and commitment to the law programs offered at IE University by granting individual scholarships to students with excellent academic records and extracurricular involvement. The collaborations also give students the opportunity to carry out internships and work with a mentor at the firms, enriching their professional learning experience and expanding their legal network.

"I received the Clifford Chance scholarship in my first year at IE University and managed to maintain high grades to be able to renew the scholarship for my second and third year. Each year, a meeting is organized with the Law firm to discuss our experience throughout our bachelor and possible future work opportunities. Receiving this scholarship has enabled me to pursue the studies of my choice and start a path towards my dream profession."

CLIFFORD CHANCE SCHOLARSHIP FOR DIVERSITY

One of Clifford Chance’s global corporate principles is diversity. In

all spheres we enjoy working with people of different nationalities

and cultures, with different experiences and backgrounds. We are

convinced that this enriches us, as well as our clients.

To this end, the Clifford Chance Scholarship for Diversity aims to

award young IE University students who, based on these different

realities, have a series of competencies and interests including: a

legal calling and the pursuit of excellence, passion for international,

dynamic and high-quality work and making the client the focus of all

our work.

Clifford Chance has collaborated with IE University from its

inception, granting scholarships to three law students and our

feedback on them is enormously positive. They all have a calling

to international work, multidisciplinary interests and considerable,

healthy ambition, something which foreshadows exceptional

professional careers.

MANAGING PARTNER AT CLIFFORD CHANCE SPAIN

"When deciding which university to attend, I did not only seek a place with a high quality teaching system, but also a place where I would feel valued as a person and as a student. Furthermore, with the help of the Scholarship for Innovative Lawyers from Cuatrecasas Gonçalves Pereira, I really feel that a lot of confidence has been placed in me as a student, something which motivates me to constantly grow."

JOSÉ MARÍA ORTIZ


CUATRECASAS GONÇALVES PEREIRA SCHOLARSHIP FOR INNOVATIVE LAWYERS

We believe that innovation and creativity are two essential values

in today’s globalised world which is constantly changing and

transforming. Therefore, Cuatrecasas, Gonçalves Pereira wishes

to promote these values in students so that when they join the

professional world, they do so with comprehensive training, which

provides the added value that organizations and clients demand of

them.

We collaborate with IE University as it strongly supports the criteria

of excellence and constant evolution of its student’s education and

training, something we seek at our firm.

We have always found that IE University students have the technical

capabilities, global and international training and human values

that are necessary in lawyers and share our philosophy and culture;

keys for the successful development of a career at Cuatrecasas,

Gonçalves Pereira.

"I have been awarded a scholarship from Latham & Watkins and I am honored to have had such an opportunity. It is thanks to this scholarship that I have been able to pursue my education at IE University. I have been visiting their offices every academic year and I look forward to enjoying the opportunity to be an intern in one of their offices in the future."

LATHAM & WATKINS SCHOLARSHIP FOR ENTREPRENEURIAL LAWYERING

Latham & Watkins is proud to offer IE University Scholarship

for Entrepreneurial Lawyering which seeks to identify hardworking,

talented and driven students who are potential future leaders in

the profession. This scholarship enables scholars to demonstrate

outstanding academic qualifications and entrepreneurial extra-

curricular involvement. Every year, we receive the scholars in our

office a couple of times, we try to be their legal mentors supporting

them and advising them in their careers. Besides, they bring fresh and

innovative ideas as well as experiences which are always welcome

by our team! We are lucky and proud to have such smart and fun IE

University scholars with brilliant legal careers ahead of them.

PARTNER AT LATHAM & WATKINS.

"This scholarship opens up many new opportunities for me, not only in the financial sense, but also because of the contacts I get to make for my future professional life. Being involved with Peréz-Llorca means that I can meet many interesting people, can expand my network and can learn from those that have dedicated their life to what I want to do with mine. Next year, the firm has offered me to follow a summer internship with them to help me apply the theory that I have learnt in practice and to make me familiar with the concepts that may arise in the life of a lawyer."

MICHELLE MEYER


PÉREZ-LLORCA SCHOLARSHIP FOR THE EXCELLENCE IN LAW PRACTICE

Through the Pérez-Llorca Scholarship for the Excellence in Law

Practice, we offer IE University students the opportunity to put the

challenges of the daily practice of law to the test.

We have had the opportunity to welcome students in the first years

of their studies. We really enjoy this experience because on one

hand, we get to know the students, and on the other hand, they

can see what it means to work at a law firm. This is a very enriching

experience for both parties. IE University stands out because of

the tremendous diversity in its student body; this means that the

students’ profiles are even more interesting.

All students have left a very good impression on us: They’ve shown

great interest and capacity to adapt, and above all, a great deal of

knowledge when it comes to the legal sector.

CONSTANZA VERGARA

PARTNER AT PÉREZ-LLORCA.

"Receiving a scholarship provides me with additional motivation in every aspect. Being recognized for my accomplishments shows the belief in my education and it is not only an honor to me, but also a great acknowledgment for all my academic endeavors. Having a scholarship certainly boosts my aspirations within the legal world and encourages my devotion in the pursuit of excellence. I feel privileged to be granted with such an excellent scholarship and highly appreciate the financial support of PwC who assure me that hard work and effort will ultimately pay off."

our commitment to IE University, which reflects our firm intention

to contribute to the excellence of the “lawyers of tomorrow”. IE

University’s excellent learning environment, practical approach

"It is an honor to receive the Rodrigo Uría Scholarship for Lawyering and Humanities. Being awarded with the trust of both them, and IE University motivates me to further succeed academically and professionally. I can identify with the values of both Uría and IE, propelling me to develop as a leader as well as providing me with the best performance along my path. I have a good relationship with the law firm and at least once every semester they invite me to their office in Madrid to discuss the possibility of developing projects together."

place when searching for our future lawyers. We help in the training,
