Course Overview

Two dedicated law careers tutors are on hand to discuss career options and upcoming opportunities and advise about different firms.

We host a wide range of external speakers yearly representing the legal profession.

You get the chance to develop your legal skills during the course:

• The Legal Advice Clinic allows you to advise non-law students on legal issues (with support from academics and local solicitors)

• The 'LEGAL WEEK' is an informal student-staff discussion group that runs every two weeks and discusses contemporary issues with legal implications. 'LEGAL WEEK' allows interaction and fruitful exchange of ideas and improves current awareness.

• Your professional competencies can be enhanced by getting involved with the Student Law Society's debating, client interviewing, negotiating, and mooting activities.

This course will give you an in-depth understanding of public and private international law. It will equip you with the advanced knowledge and skills needed to understand the rules and principles governing how nations deal with each other. The course is ideal if you want to broaden your knowledge across international boundaries and if you want to work in legal practice or commercial legal work within corporations, non-governmental organizations, or the government. The course combines the study of eight option modules chosen from a broad range of topics. Through these modules, you will gain an excellent insight into the foundations, general principles, and current trends of international law, as well as the subject areas of international trade and finance, corporate law, world trade, and environmental law.
