Master of Laws (LLM) - International Business and Commercial Law

The world of work is changing. Many of the issues facing clients are international. Our LLM International Business and Commercial Law programme is designed for those wanting to work with international clients, and provides a comprehensive understanding of the legal issues that businesses face through setting up and operating internationally, as well as the practical legal skills needed to advise those clients. Using commercial case studies, you will study the key areas of law: business, intellectual property, commercial contracts, trade and dispute resolution, in an international context. Our practical approach will explore the lifecycle of an international business looking to set up, raise money and conduct business, transactions and contracts. You’ll also learn what happens to an international business when things go wrong – looking at corporate insolvency, disputes and arbitration. During the course you will develop your legal skills and knowledge in an international commercial setting, while exploring current topics in contemporary legal practice such as legal technology, innovation and sustainability. You'll finish with a professional research project where you will have the opportunity to undertake practical research in an area of law or commercial practice in the international context of your choice.
