The Public International Law LLM at Queen Mary university of London will offer you a unique opportunity to study the role and place of law in international affairs. Questions of international law are an increasingly important part of domestic litigation in almost all jurisdictions.
Modules for the LLM in Public International Law cover a wide range of issues related to international law and governance, including the rights of the child, conduct of hostilities, international tax law, climate change law, terrorism migration and human rights. Please note that not all modules will be available in any one year.
You will be offered a varied selection of taught modules from which you can choose, enabling you to gear your qualification to set you on your desired career trajectory. You do not have to choose your modules until you have had the opportunity to learn about them in greater detail during your comprehensive induction period.
