The general degree of LLM is suitable for students seeking a wide range of choice among a number of advanced courses, without narrowly focusing their studies in one area of law. Students must take three taught courses and complete a dissertation. Unless demand is excessive, you may take any of the courses available on the LLM in Commercial Law, the LLM in European Law, the LLM in Innovation, Technology and the Law, the LLM in International Law, the two research-training courses attached to the LLM in Legal Research, or two of the options available on the MSc in Criminology and Criminal Justice.

Learning Outcomes By the end of this programme, students should have acquired a more sophisticated understanding of their chosen subjects,including the diverse functions of law in contemporary society, differing approaches to the subject and a greater familiarity with research materials and methods.


Contents

Courses will be taught by seminar. Students are expected to prepare in advance by reading the required materials and by reflecting on the issues to be discussed.

For the dissertation, students will be allocated a supervisor, who will provide guidance and support. The purpose of the dissertation, however, is to allow students independently to design and conduct a piece of research and analysis.
