Careers

A career in Law can command status, prestige and often has a good or even large income attached. As this dynamic area of law is developing both commercial law firms, government agencies and NGO’s will be seeking professionals equipped with this combined knowledge and skill. Equally, after studying in this developing area of law, you may wish to use the programme as an entry point towards a PhD in Sustainable Law and beyond that to work in the academic world.
