Civil and commercial law can be further divided into two parts: civil law and commercial law. Civil law is mainly engaged in the research of traditional civil law, and commercial law is mainly engaged in the teaching and research of various disciplines of commercial law. Some schools also incorporate the direction of labor and social security law into the major of civil and commercial law, while others incorporate this direction into the major of economic law. The civil and commercial law major is very popular, and the competition is the fiercest among the legal majors at present. The admission ratio is generally above12 ∶ L. This major has broad employment prospects, and universities, courts, procuratorates, large state-owned enterprises, foreign enterprises, law firms and accounting firms are all its employment targets.
Economic and legal research
The main research directions of this major are economic law, finance and tax law, financial law, enterprise and company law. As a traditional advantage major, the major of economic law has always been a favorite major of the majority of candidates, and its enrollment ratio is generally around 10: 1. Some schools are more competitive, such as China Renmin University and Peking University. Because of their close connection with real economic life, graduates majoring in economic law have better employment prospects than other majors. At the same time, because it is an applied major, students can quickly enter the working state after graduation, which also meets the requirements of employers. Generally, most people go to large state-owned enterprises or foreign enterprises after graduation. For this reason, this major has always been a popular major for the majority of candidates.
Litigation law
This subject mainly includes criminal procedure law, civil procedure law, criminal investigation and material evidence technology. With the increasing emphasis on the value of procedural justice in China's court system, the employment prospects of litigation law majors are better, so many students majoring in litigation law compete for employment in the court system after graduation. In addition, if candidates want to engage in the legal profession in the future, graduates with professional background in procedural law will have an advantage in employment competition. Comparatively speaking, the employment difficulty in the direction of criminal procedure law is greater than that in the direction of civil procedure law, and the admission ratio is generally around 10: 1. However, the specific situation of each school is different, and the possible proportion is also changing.
International jurisprudence

Ordinary civil servants, university teachers, lawyers, state-owned enterprises or foreign companies are the main employment directions for graduates.
