The LLM enhances their knowledge of the fundamental principles of law, combined with the flexibility to explore their own interests with support from research-active teaching staff. The underlying philosophy of this course is to enable students to continue their professional, educational and personal development by consolidating, enhancing and extending your disciplinary expertise, professional ethics, experience and abilities. The Applied route enables students to work directly with an organization, applying and demonstrating the knowledge and skills they have learned during the first stage of their course.
Students develop recognized subject-specific knowledge and understanding as well as cognitive, intellectual, practical, professional and generic key skills and qualities. The course enables students to more effectively plan, manage and evaluate their own learning to become an independent lifelong learner. Students work with complex knowledge, theory and concepts appropriate to postgraduate study and are required to demonstrate high levels of personal responsibility and self-direction.
The LLM course is the result of research carried out by academics and lawyers in the School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Law to develop a programme focusing on the philosophical theories that underpin the law, and building on current perspectives in law. It focuses on the underlying legal theories that determine the scope of the existing law and proposals for changes to legislation and the common law.
