Overview

Our LLM programme in Intellectual Property Law aims to meet the needs of students, lawyers and policy makers who wish to study intellectual property law from an international and comparative perspective. Intellectual property law is a crucial part of an innovative and creative economy and has become central to government and international policymaking. As a result, there is a need for expertise in the field for lawyers, policy makers and manufacturers involved with developing a knowledge economy. The course would benefit those seeking to practice in the field of intellectual property law or those with an interest in policy in the sphere of innovation or the creative industries. Develop your knowledge of intellectual property, trademarks, copyright and patents and more broadly commercial law.

Course structure

You must select at least two of your four taught modules and complete the dissertation in the area of Intellectual Property Law. You may also select up to two modules from those listed in any other LLM programme or from a combination of LLM programmes. The programme is delivered in two stages. Stage One (the taught component) comprises four 30 credit modules; Stage Two comprises the dissertation.

Learning and assessment

Study for an LLM is intensive and challenging and it is important that you take full advantage of the teaching that is provided in order to succeed. Attendance at classes and dissertation supervisions is compulsory and we will expect you to be well prepared. Our teaching is very flexible and your modules may be delivered through seminars or a combination of lectures and seminars. Other teaching methods include the online use of discussion boards, self-access study packs and formative quizzes and activities. Modules may be diverse in content to cater a high proportion of overseas students or students with previous qualifications other than in law. Modules are typically led by experienced staff actively engaged in research relevant to their subject area. We make use of both formative and summative assessment.

Career prospects

A law degree doesn’t restrict graduates to careers within the legal profession and law graduates enter professions as diverse as finance, sales and marketing, digital communications and recruitment. We are committed to extending extracurricular opportunities to our students, helping to enhance their CVs in a competitive graduate job market. We work in partnership with lawyers, charities and voluntary organisations to give students the opportunity to practise and extend their skills and we run several Pro Bono schemes and provide advice to members of the community on different legal issues. Students successfully completing the LLM programme may have the opportunity to continue their legal study through the School’s PhD programme or through the Centre for Professional Legal Studies professional programmes (the Legal Practice Course or Bar Professional Training Course).
