Throughout the International Law and Security programme from UWE Bristol (University of the West of England) you'll examine the key legal principles and rules underpinning the international legal system.

Career opportunities:

Studying for an LLM provides an ideal opportunity to develop specialist skills that'll be favoured by employers, both in the legal world and beyond. It opens up a range of career opportunities in legal practice and gives our students the edge over other graduates.

The in-depth knowledge you'll acquire in your chosen area of law will give you a thorough grounding in this subject area.

The specialist knowledge and skillset you gain will raise your employability prospects, enabling you to become an in-demand specialist within your organisation.Given the increasingly transnational nature of law, this course is designed to provide you with knowledge and skills which will be attractive to employers both in the UK and beyond.Recent graduates have gained positions with major employers, such as local government, solicitors' firms and organisations such as the United Nations (UN). Many of our LLM graduates go into academia and further study, choosing to complete a PhD or go into teaching and research.
