Course summary
The European Union (EU) is one of the most significant legal, political, and economic actors in the world today, making expertise in European law an invaluable asset for lawyers, businesses, and policymakers within and beyond its borders. As the world’s largest trading bloc and partner to 80 non-Member States, the EU exerts a global influence on issues ranging from trade and international security to transnational police cooperation and human rights.In recent years, the EU has also had to respond to an unprecedented set of challenges, including Brexit, the rule of law crisis, migration, the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and the rise of artificial intelligence and related digital technologies.Against this backdrop, the LLM in European Law at the University of Edinburgh provides an unrivalled opportunity to gain advanced knowledge of this dynamic field of law.As a world-leading centre for the study of EU law located in a former Member State, we are uniquely positioned to critically assess the Union’s past, present, and future. Our programme exposes you to a wide array of cutting-edge perspectives, with a teaching team comprised not only of leading scholars, but also legal practitioners and policymakers.The LLM in European Law is designed to cover the full breadth and depth of the field, with courses ranging from competition law to criminal law, and from data protection and information privacy to citizenship, immigration, and asylum. You will also have the chance to participate in the European Law Moot Court, one of the most prestigious mooting competitions in the world.
