About the course

The future of the law is digital. This innovative LLM offers you critical and intellectual specialisation in this rapidly developing area.

On this course, you’ll learn from today’s leading lawyers who’ll weave their latest insights and research into the course content. You’ll:

When you graduate, you’ll be ready to show employers that you're an expert in the fields of intellectual property and information technology. These areas are of particular interest to tech companies and specialised law firms.

We understand that deciding where and what to study is a very important decision. We’ll make all reasonable efforts to provide you with the courses, services and facilities described in this prospectus. However, if we need to make material changes, for example due to government or regulatory requirements, or unanticipated staff changes, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.
