Both in the UK and overseas the internationally focused LLM is a ‘gold standard’ qualification for entry into the legal profession, as the focus of specialisation has increasingly shifted to international legal practice.
In the corporate business world, the LLM carries a similar cachet to the Executive MBA, while offering greater specialism in its content.
In many European jurisdictions, the LLM is a compulsory prerequisite for entry into the legal profession.
6 of the 15-credit modules, 6-week-long modules below will be studied in varying sequences depending on your start date with 2 of the modules running simultaneously over the 6-week period. The 30-credit modules will be delivered stand-alone over a 6-week period. There are 6 hours of teaching per week on 30-credit modules and 4 hours of teaching per week on 15-credit modules. Throughout the course, you will also undertake substantial independent study.
Upon successful completion of the first 120 credits (PGDIP), you will progress onto the default final 60 credits of the course where you will develop and apply the skills and knowledge required to undertake an international consultancy project on behalf of a client firm. Alternative options for the default final 60 credits of the course are either a 3-month internship or 9-12 month placement. Should you secure an internship or placement for the final 60 credits of the course, you will attend an additional series of lectures to support you as you prepare for your work-based option.
