Obtaining your JCL? Want to learn more about the interaction between the law of Church and society?

You deepen and broaden the knowledge you’ve gained during your previous education in the master's degree in Society, Law and Religion. The combination of both programs entitles you to the ecclesiastical recognized degree of Juris Canonici Licentiatus. The two-year programme focuses on the study of canon law and provides an introduction into the law of other religions (comparative law) and the study of capita selecta. The skills obtained will be applied during the internship and improved through personal research. This general experience will be reflected in a research paper. https://www.canonlawleuven.com/documents daily 0.75 2025-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320319853-TSCPELXZK2YW9OR97HKW/AAAa.png Documents - Documents & Forms https://www.canonlawleuven.com/working-students daily 0.75 2025-09-19 https://www.canonlawleuven.com/home daily 0.75 2021-08-30 https://www.canonlawleuven.com/calender daily 0.75 2025-09-19 https://www.canonlawleuven.com/registration daily 0.75 2021-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320311025-BR0KDXEA6UDNII6WT65N/AAAa.png Registration - Studying at the Faculty of Canon Law? https://www.canonlawleuven.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2021-11-12 https://www.canonlawleuven.com/future-phdstudents daily 0.75 2024-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320314036-OQ5H3P4UFXYATCTH9DFH/AAAa.png Future PhD students - Doctoral programs Doctoral program in Society, Law and Religion Doctoral program in Canon Law (JCD) https://www.canonlawleuven.com/current-phdstudents daily 0.75 2023-12-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320314036-OQ5H3P4UFXYATCTH9DFH/AAAa.png Current PhD students - Current PhD students https://www.canonlawleuven.com/forms daily 0.75 2023-12-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320314036-OQ5H3P4UFXYATCTH9DFH/AAAa.png Forms - Forms https://www.canonlawleuven.com/phd-congress daily 0.75 2025-09-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320314036-OQ5H3P4UFXYATCTH9DFH/AAAa.png PhD Congress - PhD Congress https://www.canonlawleuven.com/welcome-in-leuven daily 0.75 2025-01-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320326032-EBAKHO3ANZF9HQGG8U21/Aula.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1630320326050-HN50ADPKAPVKSTEAK9SQ/Huis+renaer.jpg https://www.canonlawleuven.com/new-page daily 0.75 2026-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/eb4a2bd4-9082-44d2-9f6e-dff1597c9cc0/Screenshot%2B2021-07-22%2B192137.png Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/ec684b10-dc38-4a53-8739-28bf9d66957a/image-2.jpeg Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/609a8b4c-25a5-47eb-9c7b-d2585be86c16/Ad_vander_helm.jpg Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/85882fb4-142a-49eb-a64a-f1f89d000588/dc975ca4631d8d3bc91f5b511b84b074_thumb.jpg Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/99c66119-51ef-44cf-a698-36ebf619d104/D6ka3xZ8_400x400.jpg Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/e4d9725d-e46c-4eeb-a178-ca6dd0d707bb/Afbeelding1.png Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/cc9d99fd-29d5-4803-b4e7-32c3e9ebca0f/josef-otter-spendet-am-sonntag-den-einze.jpg Professors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/587d6425-f6c6-4ff0-bfe7-dd13f2430b76/WhatsApp+Image+2025-09-25+at+12.54.58.jpeg Professors https://www.canonlawleuven.com/faq daily 0.75 2024-12-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/80f1acce-bc55-4c59-b393-3e8ae5bded48/AdobeStock_111955946.jpeg https://www.canonlawleuven.com/news daily 0.75 2026-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/6da8cc1a-27f5-40ec-a879-aca0d8c954ff/professor+wim+decock.jpg.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/cc7d1392-04a4-4bd5-911a-6a860eb6d54a/c36ec2d7-a8ef-4448-8afe-3f83faa708cd.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/4eb7e86a-73d0-4b75-8ce2-44b32289df82/tempImageSk3z7c.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/7ea600cb-8ded-4d98-864e-7f5268fcb072/Tim+Peeters+%28kanselier+ABM+en+officiaal+1ste+aanleg%29.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/f9d0e855-156b-4241-aa2e-9ba6dd051b31/image002.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/1655380327085-9INAN4YCW90QRW6Q0K1P/Luc.jpg News - Death of Prof. Dr. Luc De Fleurquin With great sadness it is my duty to inform you of the death of Professor Dr. Luc De Fleurquin. He was professor at our Faculty of Canon Law from 1976 to 2009. Generations of canonists have attended classes with him, and students of law and theology will also remember him as an outstanding teacher and engaging storyteller. He showed the greatest attention to each student individually and throughout his life he was concerned about the future of the Church. Which undoubtedly brought him sorrow as well as happiness. After his retirement he was, among other things, episcopal vicar in the diocese of Antwerp (Belgium) and judicial vicar of the ecclesiastical court of second instance. May he rest in peace. Prof. dr. Dr. Rik Torfs https://www.canonlawleuven.com/alumni daily 0.75 2025-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612cb6a868c91137228b6ed8/6c80c25b-4bb6-4733-bcbd-235d42e13081/image-1000-ef6dbb823c69850dbdeeecea9ba10b54.jpeg Alumni The Faculty of Canon Law has its own alumni association: Alumni Canonicae.
