Course summary

Gain knowledge in an area of law which is central to government and international policy making.

Our LLM programme in Intellectual Property Law aims to meet the needs of students, lawyers and policy makers who wish to study intellectual property law from an international and comparative perspective.

Intellectual property law is a crucial part of an innovative and creative economy and has become central to government and international policymaking. As a result, there is a need for expertise in the field for lawyers, policy makers and manufacturers involved with developing a knowledge economy. The course would benefit those seeking to practice in the field of intellectual property law or those with an interest in policy in the sphere of innovation or the creative industries.

Develop your knowledge of intellectual property, trademarks, copyright and patents and more broadly commercial law.

Career prospects

A law degree doesn’t restrict graduates to careers within the legal profession and law graduates enter professions as diverse as finance, sales and marketing, digital communications and recruitment.

We are committed to extending extracurricular opportunities to our students, helping to enhance their CVs in a competitive graduate job market. We work in partnership with lawyers, charities and voluntary organisations to give students the opportunity to practise and extend their skills and we run several Pro Bono schemes and provide advice to members of the community on different legal issues.

Students successfully completing the LLM programme may have the opportunity to continue their legal study through the School’s PhD programme or through the Centre for Professional Legal Studies professional programmes (the Legal Practice Course or Bar Professional Training Course).
