Introduction
This pathway opens up access to a range of occupations that require specialist expertise. It equips you with the necessary intellectual tools to practice international commercial law or work for relevant government departments, regulators, and international organizations in a policymaking or advisory capacity. It also provides an excellent foundation for students who may wish to pursue a research degree in the field.
It combines a thorough grounding in technical legal instruments of international commercial law, with sophisticated training in interdisciplinary frameworks for analysis of global business regulation, as well as reflective evaluation of the operation and effectiveness of law. Emphasis is also placed upon the interaction of law with other disciplines, particularly economics and politics. The modules are taught by distinguished academic specialists who cover a large and diverse range of subjects within the field.
Students can choose to spend one term (either Autumn or Spring) at our Canterbury campus and one (either Autumn or Spring) at our Brussels center (returning to Canterbury to complete the dissertation) under our split-site option for this Program.
