About
History
- In 2000, one of the largest private foundations in Germany - the ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius - founded the Bucerius Law School - the country's first private law school.
- The aim was to create a new type of law school that would realize the ideal of unifying research and teaching, and where committed teaching would be valued just as much as academic research.
