Program Description

With our LLM in International and Commercial Law, you’ll discover more about the legal framework governing the international community and the legal issues surrounding global markets.

Knowledge of world trade - and the legal framework surrounding it - has never been more important. Legal employers now place a high premium on graduates with international commercial law skills. On this course, you'll look beyond national jurisdictions and get to grips with the issues of public international law and international commercial law.

In addition, this course has a new pathway on Business, Human Rights & the Environment which is the first comprehensive course of its kind in the UK and Europe to address the impact of business activities on human rights and the environment. For this pathway, the 'Business, Human Rights and the Environment' module is mandatory.

Notes:

• Tuition fees for students who have citizens' rights after Brexit: £10,500
