LLM International Trade Law

If you want to ...

  • examine the framework of international law governing the economic relations between States
  • analyse bilateral investment and free trade treaties, and explore regional trade agreements
  • investigate World Trade Organisation law
  • study international trade regulation

... then LLM International Trade Law is the course for you.

LLM International Trade Law focuses on the public international law aspects of international trade, and the regulation undertaken by international law and international institutions, including the World Trade Organisation and the International Monetary Fund.

The course allows you to examine the significant role that international law has played in the redistribution of wealth and the reform of the global economic order, and develop a specialised and detailed knowledge of the law concerning international trade.

You will investigate and apply the complex rules of international trade law to novel problems and real-world and hypothetical scenarios.  The course also gives you the opportunity to critically evaluate the legal rules and underlying policies concerning International Trade Law.

The distinctiveness of this LLM programme lies in its coherent provision of postgraduate level study in the area of international trade law. Few Law Schools in the United Kingdom offer such specific programmes on international trade law.
