The business of law is changing. We know that what is considered excellent today, will not be good enough tomorrow. Traditions will be broken. The status quo will be challenged. We need to keep striving to do better, be better. We need to strive for Excellence.

At Dentons, we believe that we can only attain excellence through embracing diversity. By recognizing that diverse backgrounds and perspectives are critical to business success. By understanding that excellence has no gender, age or sexual orientation. By recognizing that excellence has no dominant ethnicity, religion or nationality. And by acknowledging that excellence comes in all shapes and sizes. We invite students with a strong work ethic to join our Scholarship.

The Dentons Diverse Excellence Scholarship will offer a student funding to continue their education at postgraduate (Master) level, as well as an opportunity to obtain a work student placement at our office in Amsterdam.

Requirements

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are looking for challengers. Creative thinkers from all backgrounds. Ambitious students in pursuit of excellence who can help us define what law looks like tomorrow.

This scholarship programme is directed to law students who are currently in the last year of their bachelor studies at a Dutch university, and who would like to pursue a master’s Law degree in the Netherlands.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Likely to be admitted to a master’s programme in the Netherlands
  • Planning on practicing law in the Netherlands

Essential to our success as a global law firm is our ability to foster an inclusive, forward-thinking and innovative workplace, where individuals can thrive and be themselves. With this initiative, we therefore wish to encourage, motivate and attract talented law students from all backgrounds, inclusive of race, ethnicity, faith, religion or spiritual beliefs, gender, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, abilities, social perspective and other characteristics. In doing so, we hope to create a dynamic and inclusive work environment that is welcoming to us all and promotes collective excellence.
