International trade is a specialist but very important area of law. Whilst specialist, it has considerable numbers of practitioners all around the world and it is growing as a result of globalisation. Developing countries necessarily need more lawyers educated in this area as their development necessarily involves deepening involvement in the international trade process and the legal structures which underpin it. Globalisation also necessarily means that the same result follows in developed countries as trade becomes even more international.

This programme aims to provide core knowledge and understanding of the background to international trade, the transactional conditions conductive to its development and the specific and general problems which threaten the success and integrity of individual transactions. It also aims to encourage students to develop research skills in these areas.


Contents

Module details The LL.M in International Trade Transactions programme requires the study of 120 credits of taught course units. This involves taking one compulsory course unit ( International Sale of Goods ) of 30 credit value and the remaining 90 credits from an approved list of commercial law options. Each individual course unit is of either 15 or 30 credits value.

The LL.M in International Trade Transactions will typically offer optional course units in International Carriage of Goods by Sea ; Banking & Payment in International Sales; The Laws & Practice of International Banking & Finance; Electronic Commerce Law; Competition Law in an International Context; and International Commercial Arbitration Law (along with several other more generic optional course units).
