Location of Cardiff University

The LLM (Human Rights Law) critically analyses the domestic and international impact of the major UN and European Conventions - both civil and political as well as the socio-economic and cultural.

The Human Rights route aims to provide a sound knowledge of the theory and the legal rules applicable to international human rights treaties and their domestic counterparts. Course participants will be drawn from a wide range of backgrounds and disciplines. Although it will be of particular interest to students and advocates wishing to study this subject at Masters Level, it will, in addition, be of direct relevance to health and social care professionals working in the independent and statutory sectors. What participants are likely to have in common is an interest in making a significant difference in the lives of people whose civil and human rights may be threatened and who frequently experience social exclusion and powerlessness.

Current modules include: Human Rights: National and International Legal Contexts; and Human Rights, Health and Disability.

Special Features:

* Provides an opportunity for students to interact with lawyers who have practical human rights law experience.
* Enables students to attend human rights based conferences and seminars run by the Centre for Health & Social Care law.
