LLM
Summary
Law is a fascinating, complex and practically significant social phenomenon. From the regulation of private conflicts to the structure of government, virtually no aspect of our social lives is outside its grasp. The LLM in Law and Society at Keele allows you to gain a rigorous understanding of law and legal institutions from an interdisciplinary perspective. It is a selective programme that delivers high quality postgraduate training if you wish to pursue a PhD in law and socio-legal studies, a career at the bar or within the public and NGO sectors.
The LLM combines a set of foundational core modules in law and society with a flexible choice of electives. Studying the LLM supports a deep understanding of the relationship between law and society, provides training in innovative methods and the acquisition of transferable skills, and promotes genuine interdisciplinarity.
We offer two pathways for the LLM that cater for different career paths:
**Pathway One** offers a balance between core foundational modules and wide selection of elective modules.
**Pathway Two** is a research methods intense pathway for students who intend to pursue a PhD and intend to apply for PhD funding.
Pathway Two of the LLM in Law and Society is recognised as fulfilling the requirements of the Economic and Social Research Council’s (ESRC) postgraduate social science research training and development and as the first year of 1+3 awards made by the ESRC North West Social Sciences Doctoral Training Partnership to students registered at Keele University.
