International Commercial Law LLM

Course overview

This course focuses on the legal regulation from the perspective of a common law jurisdiction, and the challenges presented through membership of the international and European communities.

Founded in the ancient silk and spice routes, international trade and commerce has spread to become the most significant activity of any modern economy. The provision of goods and services in other countries has increased dramatically in the second half of the 20th century, and today continues to reveal new markets, products and commercial practices.

This course is our flagship programme for the international market. It draws on our academic excellence in Commercial Law, Corporate Law, International Economic Law, Intellectual Property Law and Tax. It is linked to the LLM Intellectual Property, with which it shares several units.

This course is suitable for a wide range of career paths: in-house counsel in an export-related industry, work in the City or other global financial centre, regulatory office in governmental organisations, appointments in foreign services, or even an academic career.
