    Course Summary

    It is an exciting time for experts in International Business Law. This is a moment in history when globalisation is changing the ways organisations of all kinds and in all sectors do business. As the old ways fall aside, new laws are established on the local, national and international levels to guide and regulate new business models. As that happens, both regulators and businesses of all kinds need access to experts in the new International Business Laws that now apply, and will apply in the near future.

    Cardiff Met offers a highly specialised LLM program with a focus on the law of International Business. You’ll study how the global economy connects organisations across borders and over whole continents. You’ll understand how transnational businesses now compete, and how they adapt to profit under a wide range of local, national and regional laws and customs. You’ll also learn how to approach international legal disputes from a truly interdisciplinary perspective.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.

    Learning And Teaching

    As this degree is designed to accommodate students without a legal background, you’ll first need to be brought up to speed. You’ll begin with an intensive induction week which will ensure that you have a sufficient understanding of the UK legal system, the ethics of the UK’s legal education providers and the specific skills you’ll need to have before you can undertake advanced legal studies effectively.  The main course content will be delivered via lectures, seminars and workshops.

    Career Possibilities

    The core function of this program is to ensure that graduates have a firm grasp on the UK and international legal systems, as well as sufficient understanding of the interactions between law, regulation and business to operate as managers or directors of international firms in full compliance with all relevant legal requirements. You’ll therefore be uniquely qualified to take on a wide range of roles in business, management and / or administration.

    Entry & Credit

    Successful completion will result in a 1 year LLM degree.

    Applicants must typically have earned a UK honours degree in a relevant topic, or the international equivalent. The full list of qualifications can be found here.

    All classes are taught in English, though some may also be taken in Welsh. International students will be required to show proficiency in English by doing well on an approved test.
