Summary

Our LLM Human Rights course offers an in-depth review of the historical and contemporary significance of the human rights aspects of law, in particular their growth as topics of both domestic and international importance over recent decades.

Study the key international principles in human rights law that can influence the development of policy and explore expressive rights such as the freedom of religion, politics and art.

With strong academic expertise and links to the Centre for Rights and Justice, this programme equips you with the knowledge and skills necessary to influence policy and advocate for human rights.
