Masters of Law (LLM)

As you will see from the other pages of this website, the School of Law of the University of Nottingham offers an impressive range of specialist LLM programmes across a variety of areas of law, from international commercial law to criminal justice, from public international law to maritime law. However, such specialisation is not right for everyone. The general LLM permits students to make whatever choice suits and appeals to them from the full range of over 50 modules offered across all the specialist LLM programmes.

For students for whom variety is indeed the spice of intellectual life, or for whom an apparently unorthodox blend of modules in fact meets their needs perfectly, this is the perfect degree.

A complete absence of restriction on choice allows students, timetable permitting, to combine international sale of goods with international human rights law, or European Community competition law with international criminal law, or international consumer protection with international law on the use of force.

The LLM programme lived up fully to my expectations.  Not only did I learn a lot about various aspects of English and EU commercial law, but I also discovered numerous other perspectives whilst discussing legal problems with other colleagues who came from all four corners of the world.  I found the Nottingham experience invaluable, and it helped me a great deal in my future career.
