Summary
Develop specialist knowledge of the laws that drive cross-border business, commerce and trade, covering everything from contracts and competition to corporate governance and finance.
Our LLM International Business and Commercial Law equips you to tackle the legal, regulatory and governance challenges facing organisations operating across international markets. You will explore how law responds to issues affecting multinational companies, international trade and global commerce. You’ll also develop advanced research skills prized by leading law firms and international organisations.
You will examine key areas including corporate governance, international trade transactions, competition law and financial regulation. Through critical engagement with contemporary legal developments, including post-crisis financial regulation, sanctions, digital assets and environmental, social and governance issues, you will build advanced understanding of the laws that underpin international business activity and commercial decision-making.
Our research-led teaching means you learn from academics whose work influences global governmental policy and informs international organisations. You can put the theory into practice from day one, through client-facing projects at our Justice Hub or the Manchester Innocence Project, developing your professional skills and confidence.
With flexible optional course units, you can tailor your studies to specialisms such as transnational dispute resolution, intellectual property or law and finance in emerging markets. After graduating, you’ll be well-placed for careers across corporate, commercial and international legal practice.
