With a range of optional modules available alongside the core curriculum, students will be able to tailor the programme to areas of academic interest and career aspirations.
Students will learn from School of Law academics with significant research expertise and international legal experience in areas including:
Students do not need to have studied law at undergraduate level to take the LLM in International Legal Studies. If students have not previously studied law, they will take a two-week Introduction to Law course before the start of the programme to ensure they are familiar with the basic legal institutions and sources of international and English law.
In addition to providing specialist legal knowledge, the LLM will equip students with abilities valued in any profession, such as research, analytical and communication skills. The programme also gives students an insight into how international law shapes global society, and how we operate within it. This means students will be equipped to explore a broad range of career opportunities once they graduate.
