Study Details: LLM 1 year full-time, campus based
This LLM provides an overview of human rights law and how it works in the field of development. The course balances the theory with the urgently practical, e.g. combining the necessarily comprehensive detail of human rights legislation with the complex reality of situations of extreme poverty or oppression. You will examine the important link between environmental law and its impact on human rights and how and when the laws align/come into conflict over the protection of these two important issues. Beyond the critical subject matter found in the core modules, you will enjoy a degree of freedom in directing your own study through the choice of option modules and subject-specialism through your dissertation.
An Honours Degree 2:2 (minimum). Degrees in law, the social sciences, or other similar subjects are preferred. Those from other disciplines or with suitable professional experience will be considered on an individual basis.
Equivalent international qualifications are acceptable especially if ECTS evidence is available. Accreditation of Prior Learning (APL) and/or Accreditation of Experiential Prior Learning (APEL) are considered on an individual basis according to current University Regulations.
