Ways of studying for an LLM

Full- or part-time study

Full-time LLM programmes generally last nine to twelve months, although some are two-year courses, and part-time programmes generally take at least two years to complete

Distance/online learning

A growing number of LLM programmes can be studied by distance learning, where instructors and students communicate online rather than face to face

The research option

LLMs by research offer students the opportunity gain their degree by completing a thesis
