ESADE Law School, recognised by the Financial Times as one of the world’s most innovative law schools, recently launched a new website. The new site is built with Drupal, reflecting recent digital trends. It is responsive (i.e. multi-device) and is designed to offer intuitive navigation and a high-quality user experience.

In accordance with ESADE Law School’s global outlook, the new website is available in three versions: Spanish, English and Catalan. The site emphasises the school’s programmes, student community, faculty, researchers and ties to the business world, as well as the social debate generated in the school’s classrooms and events.

The new site is intended to highlight ESADE Law School’s value proposition in contrast to that of other international schools. The school’s differential positioning is based on excellence in teaching, an international outlook, connections to the professional world and social debate, as well as the integration of business-related experience and knowledge provided by ESADE Business School.

The overhaul of the ESADE Law School website forms part of ESADE’s digital transformation, a progressive adaptation process that will be rolled out over the new few months. This process has already yielded one concrete result – also a website – representing ESADE’s Entrepreneurship area.

 

On a par with Oxford and Harvard

The new ESADE Law School website aims to facilitate numerous innovation projects undertaken over the past few years. The Financial Times has recognised ESADE Law School as one of the world’s most innovative law schools. The British newspaper included ESADE on its list of the top 91 Master of Law providers, alongside other prestigious law school such as Oxford, Harvard and Georgetown.

The Financial Times highlighted ESADE Law School’s efforts to adapt to the future of the legal profession, which, according to the paper, will be characterised by four main challenges: the consequences of Brexit in today’s legal framework and the British “brain drain”, diversity in law firms, entrepreneurship, and artificial intelligence (a field that, far from being detrimental to the profession, will generate the need for legal specialists in new areas).
