Careers
The LLM International Business Law is an ideal preparation for a career in international business. The subjects you study include topics that you must have a knowledge of in order to succeed in senior positions in international trading companies. In addition, the programme gives you invaluable experience in finding out the law from the original sources; in preparing and producing extended legal writing; and in presenting a legal proposition briefly and succinctly to an audience.
Internships, both European and worldwide, are often advertised to participants in this course, especially those with particular or hard-to-find linguistic or other skills.
