国际知识产权法（LLM）

该计划旨在为学生提供国际知识产权法范围内各个领域的全面专业教育。该课程将使学生掌握知识产权法四个主要“支柱”的基本原理，即版权，专利，商标和工业品外观设计。知识产权法的四个主要组成部分将从三个不同的角度进行审查：国内（英国），欧盟和国际（全球条约/公约），并将包括对立法，判例法（普通法和民法）和具体法律概念的分析。在可能的情况下，将在特定的欧盟知识产权法发展与第三国（例如印度，巴基斯坦和中国）的发展之间进行比较分析。此外，还将对某些拥有完善，成熟的知识产权制度的第三国（例如美国，加拿大和澳大利亚）进行比较
This programme is designed to equip students with a comprehensive and specialist education in a range of areas within International Intellectual Property Law. The course will enable students to master the basic principles of the four main ‘pillars' of IP Law, namely, Copyright, Patents, Trade marks and Industrial Designs. The four main components of IP Law will be examined from three distinct perspectives: domestic (UK), EU and International (global treaties/conventions) and will encompass analysis of legislation, case law (common law and civil law) and specific legal concepts. Where possible, comparative analysis will be carried out as between for example, specific EU IP Law developments and those of third country States e.g. India, Pakistan and China. In addition, certain third countries with well-developed, mature IP systems (e.g. the U.S., Canada and Australia) will be examined for a comparative assessment. The distinct themes of how the Internet has brought about new thinking in the IP world and, possible overlapping forms of IP protection (e.g. copyright and patent protection of computer software) will be examined.
