Career outcomes

  • You build practice-oriented competence for notary work, including contract drafting and support in legal procedures with a clear notary focus.
  • You gain career-ready skills in contract processes and legal certainty that are directly useful in notary offices, law firms, and business legal roles.
  • You strengthen applied knowledge across Wirtschaftsrecht topics so you can handle typical notary matters such as inheritance, real estate transactions, marriage contracts, and business start-ups.
  • You prepare for professional responsibilities in notary offices by linking legal content with real transaction and documentation workflows.
  • You also create a solid foundation for your next academic step, because the bachelor qualification is positioned as the basis for further Master’s study.

Employability rate

Graduates in notary-focused business law typically see an employability rate of around 85% and an unemployment rate of about 15% in Germany, reflecting continued hiring needs where contract and compliance expertise is required.

Together, these figures point to a generally stable career outlook with reliable opportunities in notarial offices, legal service providers, and related business functions.
