LLM International Business Law

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    LLM: 12 months full-time; 24 months part-time

Course Description

This course is designed to give you a critical understanding of international law as it relates to commercial activities in a global economy. It allows you to examine complementary law and business issues which affect international business practice. The programme aims to offer a platform for professional careers where legal expertise in cross-border business, informed by commercial awareness, is essential.

The programme is made up of core legal modules and electives. The electives cover both legal and international business subjects. The inclusion of European law topics with international law subjects allows you to examine how law influences the development of supranational markets built up from a number of independent states. The European Union modules provide a model for exploring the legal regulation of ‘free-trade’ areas elsewhere in the world. There is also a dissertation, which gives you the opportunity to pursue an international business law research interest in some detail, thus increasing your specialisation.
