LL.M.
in International Trade Law
looks at all aspects of trade
at the international level,
and much of the teaching is
at the cutting edge of scholarship,
addressing issues that are developing
as the student is studying them.
LL.M.
in European Community Law
addresses all aspects of the
European Community and European
Union. Students also have access
to a range of courses on the
LLMs in International Trade
Law and in IT, Media and E-commerce.
Students have gone on to work
in law firms all over Europe,
using their specialist knowledge
gained from experts whose work
is regularly cited in the European
Court of Justice and who are
called on to give advice by
members of the European Commission.
LL.M. in Information Technology,
Media and E-Commerce
admitted its first students
in October 2002. The development
of digital technology and the
convergence of the communications
media have had a significant
impact, raising many legal problems
about access to and use of telecommunications
networks, the Internet and broadcast
media. The LLM aims to identify
and address these issues, thus
providing valuable substantive
knowledge for a lawyer in the
‘information society’.
The LLM scheme is designed to
allow flexibility in student
choice: subjects will be taught
as short, specific courses.
This approach will enable students
either to specialise or to obtain
a broader, more general knowledge
of the area of law. Additionally,
the scheme will enable students
to develop key skills from their
undergraduate degree further.
LL.M.
in UK Human Rights and Public
Law has expanded
its content markedly in recent
years, reflecting the implementation
of the Human Rights Act in the
United Kingdom and devolved
legislatures for Scotland, Northern
Ireland and Wales. It can be
taken in full-time and part-time
modes. It would be especially
attractive to people from throughout
the United Kingdom, and should
appeal to all those from the
Commonwealth or other common
law jurisdictions, plus students
from other member states of
the European Union.
Full-time
(12 months) and Part-time (24
months) Study Available
