Master of Law in International Commercial Law

Program Overview

With the enormous growth in international commerce over the last few decades knowledge of international commercial law has become an essential element of legal practice in all major law firms. The programme is also especially relevant to those seeking opportunities in the commercial world. Members of staff in the Sutherland School of Law have engaged in major research in this area spanning the full range of international commercial law from the World Trade Organisation through competition law in the domestic, European and international contexts to the issues arising out of the complexities of regulation.

  • To understand and think critically about various facets of International Commercial Law;
  • To apply their knowledge and understanding of International Commercial Law to real and hypothetical factual situations;
  • To conduct independent research and write coherent, well-structured papers.

The programme gives students, who already hold an undergraduate degree in law or have practised law for a significant period, a deeper understanding of international commercial law. Graduates acquire knowledge, understanding and skills that are particularly useful for those wishing to practise with specialist corporate law firm or wishing to work as an in-house legal adviser.

Students are challenged to understand and think critically about various facets of international commercial law, in its broader social and political context. The understanding thereby acquired is also relevant to their contribution as citizens in an increasingly wide range of areas.

We strive for a learning environment that encourages students to work individually or as part of a team, so they can develop their own and others' leadership, teamwork and communication skill, with a special emphasis on the applicability of these in the actual practice of international commercial law.
