Course summary

LLM International Dispute Resolution with Professional Skills provides a unique research-lead curriculum for top-quality candidates aiming to break into the field of international dispute resolution and maximise their level of expertise.

Learn about alternative methods to resolve commercial disputes outside of the traditional judicial system, and advance your skills and ability to maintain commercial relationships throughout the legal dispute process.

This LLM is designed to serve a wide range of professionals, including those without a law degree.

This programme presents you with an opportunity to understand and resolve, with commercial awareness, legal disputes arising from commercial obligations. It offers a comprehensive range of courses that combine theory and practical professional skills in the field of International Dispute Resolution, drawing from the expertise of legal practitioners and international academics.

Dispute resolution is faster, less adversarial, and more cost-efficient than the traditional litigation process. It’s why organisations and individuals are increasingly choosing to resolve disputes outside of court. Today there is a rapidly growing interest in and use of international dispute settlement procedures, especially in the fields of international commerce, energy and investments. This prestigious, practical and research led LLM degree will give you the right skills and knowledge to offer a very competitive edge in the marketplace.

The LLM International Dispute Resolution with Professional Skills offers students the opportunity to develop key practical skills in arbitration. Students on this programme undertake an intensive summer school course, followed by a simulated practical exercise and submission of an extended piece of writing. As well as first rate teaching from our academic staff, you will be taught by international arbitrators and practitioners of the highest repute.
