About the course

Our International Law and Development LLM focuses on the difficulties that many developing states face in terms of economic growth, but also in relation to human rights, fighting poverty levels, and improving health and education standards.

The impact of legal standards and international rules in helping developing states achieve their developmental aims has generated increasing interest from legal scholars and practitioners alike. This area has been given new impetus by the launch of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. You will develop an in-depth knowledge of these issues.
