The Master Droit Prive, or Private Law, covers the body of French law governing relationships between private parties, spanning areas such as civil law, business law, labor law, and civil procedure. Coursework typically deepens students' understanding of contract law, corporate and commercial law, employment relationships, and the procedural rules governing private disputes, building on undergraduate legal training. Students develop skills in legal research, case analysis, and the drafting of legal documents and arguments used in litigation and advisory work. Many programs in this area also offer elective tracks that allow students to specialize further in business law or labor law before entering professional practice. Graduates of private law programs commonly pursue careers as lawyers, corporate legal counsel, human resources legal specialists, judicial clerks, or advisors within law firms, companies, and public institutions. The degree also serves as preparation for professional qualification exams in France, including the bar exam for those pursuing careers as practicing lawyers.

The program lasts 2 years, with an inferred start date in September, and instruction is delivered in French. Yearly tuition is 250 EUR. Applicants should have a background in French legal studies, since the coursework assumes familiarity with foundational private law concepts and requires strong skills in legal reasoning and written analysis.
