As an executive with an international business background, the MLEA-program helped me with linking between economics, law and international business therefore, it has simply changed the way I think. As a director heading four global teams, I take strategic decisions related to corporate profitability, international expansion, and global competition therefore I recall all what I learnt during MLEA-program on frequent basis from rational choice theory, institutional economics and behavioural economics. In simple words MLEA was a life-changing program.

It was my pleasure to join the MLEA-program during the academic year 2018/2019. Concisely, it was a turning point in my career, as it boosted my career accomplishments. After graduating from MLEA I was granted a position as a Mediator/Counsellor in a Ministerial Committee of the “Cabinet of Ministers” in Egypt responsible for Reconciliation and Arbitration in international disputes. Since august 2022 I am a legal adviser for the minister of justice in the UAE. I feel nothing but gratitude for all my professors, colleagues, and all the great people I met during my stay in Hamburg.

The courses at the MLEA-program enhanced my skills as a judge, while being faced with complex legal questions. I learned to view the court as a production unit, linking its inputs (incoming cases) with its outputs (court decisions) and hence measuring court performance, using a quantitative technique. This helped me a lot as a judge to optimise my working strategy and looking at the court resolution process from a different perspective.

My experience in the MLEA program was very beneficial and educational. The different modules we took throughout the entire journey in FEPS and ILE, provided me with the opportunity to learn how to apply the economic theory and methods to the analysis of law. I would definitely recommend this program.
