LLM International Business and Law

This course helps students understand law and business around the world. It prepares them for jobs in these areas by teaching them important ideas and skills. Students will learn by doing, with hands-on practice in a Mediation Clinic, practice court sessions (moots), and presentations. The course focuses on classroom learning and real-world skills, with students using special facilities like simulation rooms and the Mediation Clinic. As a postgraduate student, you will join the Graduate College, which offers a helpful and friendly place to study.

Students will learn through a mix of classes, discussions, and activities. We will check your progress with written exams and assignments like essays, reports, portfolios, presentations, and a big project in your last year. Experts will also give talks, sharing their experiences from the field. If you have past qualifications or work experience that is relevant, the University has ways to recognise that.
