International arbitration is one of the most important methods for resolving private international commercial disputes. Disputes relating to international commercial sales, foreign investments, insurance and reinsurance, and construction, are often resolved by arbitration, as are maritime commercial disputes under a charter party, a bill of lading, or a ship sale agreement.

The module is suitable if you are interested in international commercial law and international dispute resolution. The module aims to provide you with a practical understanding of the mechanisms governing the arbitration of private commercial law disputes. No previous experience in the area is required/necessary.
