Centre For European Legal Studies

The Study of EU Legal Topics at the University of Cambridge

The Centre for European Legal Studies at the University of Cambridge provides a focus in the Law Faculty for activities in the field of European Union Law and European Comparative Law. The core of CELS' activities is the constitutional order which, since the 1950s, has been evolving on the basis of the European Community Treaties, legal ties between that new polity and the other countries of Europe and the wider world, and the substantive law of the EU.
