LLM International Legal Studies (Distance Learning)

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    LLM September start: 12 months, January start: 16 months

Course Description

Our new Distance Learning (DL) LLM International Legal Studies programme gives you an in-depth knowledge of the law in its international context.

You’ll evaluate research and advanced scholarship in areas of legal study such as human rights law, immigration and refugee law, international banking and finance law, and international environmental law.

The flexibility of the distance learning delivery allows you to study at your own convenience with our virtual learning environment, and we provide live online sessions with tutors that help you contextualise your learning.

With a range of optional modules available alongside the core curriculum, you’ll be able to tailor the programme to your areas of academic interest and your career aspirations.

You’ll learn from the School of Law academics with significant research expertise and international legal experience in areas including:

  • social justice
  • criminal law
  • human rights
  • energy and environment
  • competition law
  • intellectual property law

You do not need to have studied law at the undergraduate level to take the LLM in International Legal Studies. If you have not previously studied law, you will take a two-week Introduction to Law course before the start of the programme to ensure you are familiar with the basic legal institutions and sources of international and English law.

In addition to providing specialist legal knowledge, the DL LLM will equip you with abilities valued in any profession, such as research, analytical and communication skills.

The programme also gives you an insight into how international law shapes global society, and how we operate within it. This means you’ll be equipped to explore a broad range of career opportunities once you graduate.

The programme content is regularly updated in response to latest developments such as COVID-19, climate change and the latest advances in technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain and fintech, which impact on the development of International Law.
