The study of law gives you a deep understanding of legal systems that shape society, ensuring justice, fairness and order.
On this LLM, you’ll deepen your knowledge of core legal principles. And you’ll explore the wider social, political, economic and cultural forces forming the legal landscape today. More than understanding legal rules, studying law is about gaining the skills and insight to make a meaningful impact in society.
You’ll join the Sussex Law School with academics whose expertise spans diverse areas of law. Many of our faculty are actively involved in advising governments, international organisations and policy-makers. This ensures your learning is grounded in real-world relevance and the latest legal research.
Through your dissertation and choice of modules, you can tailor the content of your degree to focus on the areas of law that interest you most. From international financial law, to international human rights law, or criminal law and criminal justice – you’ll have the opportunity to choose your specialism supported by our experts.
