If you already have a qualifying UK law degree, this course will help you to enhance your CV with a specialism so that you stand out when competing for training contracts. If you are joining us from another legal jurisdiction you will be able to apply your specialist skills and knowledge in your home country, contributing to local priorities for growth in relevant areas. For students from countries that follow the Bologna Process and require two year of postgraduate study, it will be possible to study the LLM framework twice, choosing a different specialism each time. You will qualify for an alumni discount on the second year. Students who have qualifications or careers in related areas such as computing or engineering will acquire valuable contextual understanding that helps them stand out among their peers. This course is also an excellent route to PhD study if you are seeking an academic career within the field of law.
