Our increasingly globalised world necessitates a greater understanding of international law, international relations and international dispute resolution mechanisms. Today's greatest problems and crises-including the COVID-19 pandemic, terrorism, and climate change-require international coordination rather than diverse national responses.
In Griffith's Master of International Law, you'll be equipped with the skills to understand and apply international and globalised law principles in a range of contexts. Throughout your studies, you'll explore crucial topics such as international human rights and environmental issues, cross-border negotiations, transactions and disputes, and public international law developments.
As a student of this degree, you'll build on your existing knowledge and experience to gain a competitive edge in the legal, business, civil society, government, engineering and other professions where greater skills and knowledge in the field of international and global law are required. You'll also benefit from a stellar student support team. On-campus students will learn from a campus close to the iconic Gold Coast and its stunning beaches, and benefit socially and professionally from a thriving, collegiate learning community.
Taught by experienced experts, you'll gain a world-class education in a range of subjects including:
Under the guidance of an engaged supervisor, you may choose to explore a thesis option, enabling a deep dive into the international law topic of your passion. You'll also be able to undertake a variety of related non-law subjects, such as international relations theory, to diversify your skill set and knowledge base.
