Overview
This Law (International Law with International Relations) programme at University of Kent allows international law and international relations to inform each other. It covers the general methods, scope and theories of international law, international humanitarian law and international relations.
It provides a detailed understanding of the role, potential and limitations of public international law in international affairs. Its interdisciplinary approach is particularly suited to those involved with, or hoping to work for, international organisations, non-governmental organisations, foreign affairs departments and international law firms.
Careers
Employability is a key focus throughout the University and at Kent Law School you have the support of a dedicated Employability and Career Development Officer together with a broad choice of work placement opportunities, employability events and careers talks.
