Overview

International Law LLM is one of the routes we place students on most often, and it is offered widely enough that there is usually a fit whatever your profile looks like. It is a 1 year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in International Law is reading and argument led, assessed largely through essays and problem questions. We currently work with 25 universities on this course across 21 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £16.000 to £34.000 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

The fastest way to narrow this down is to send us your grades and English score. We will come back with a shortlist rather than a brochure.
