The International Economic Law LLM will give you a theoretical understanding and practical legal skills to understand and work with specific aspects of public international law concerned with economic relations between states and between states and non-state actors. You will be exposed to a detailed analysis of international agreements and organisations concerned with state conduct affecting trade, foreign investment, finance and monetary stability.
