Course summary

Looking to build a successful career in international law and diplomacy? Our LLM in International Law will deepen your understanding of the critical issues shaping global governance today, equipping you with the skills to thrive in international affairs, diplomacy, or global policy-making. Whether you aim to work with international organisations, global think tanks, or pursue a career in diplomacy, this course provides an opportunity to explore the origins, structure, and real-world impact of international law. You'll gain a comprehensive understanding of legal doctrines, state formation, the right to self-determination, and the circumstances under which states or individuals may lawfully use force. Our balanced curriculum incorporates three core themes: international law, business law, and social justice, allowing you to tailor your studies to your specific interests through bespoke core modules and a dissertation. Through an in-depth exploration of landmark international court cases and the rules that govern state behaviour, you’ll develop both academic and professional skills to address the pressing legal issues that affect the global landscape. If you're looking to excel in international law, this programme will provide the theoretical foundation and practical knowledge needed to navigate today’s complex and evolving global legal environment.
