This LLM provides a combination of theory and practical application which is relevant to international legal practice and business in the context of advanced intellectual engagement with issues in law and legal theory. This course also considers law in relation to associated disciplines such as international governance and international environmental issues. Course completion provides students with the necessary background and legal expertise for international practice, academic research and other intellectually demanding roles.

Additional course information
Our LLM is available at our Cambridge campus as a one year, full-time, taught degree completed by a supervised dissertation or by Distance Learning.
