LLM Human Rights

The LLM in Human Rights at Swansea University provides students with a deep understanding of human rights law within a broad spectrum. The course is designed for both law graduates and non-law graduates, providing them with an opportunity to specialise in an increasingly important area of law. Course Content: The LLM program is a full-time course that spans a year. The part-time program takes two years to complete. The first two modules provide an overview of different legal systems and legal skills, while the remaining three different Human Rights modules explore human rights law in the contexts of theory and practical application. The final stage of this course involves a dissertation, which allows students to study a particular aspect of the law in-depth. Key Modules: Legal Systems and Skills, Human Rights and the Environment, Equality and Human Rights, Philosophy of Human Rights in Social and Political Thought and Human Rights and Islamic Law. Future Careers: Graduates of the LLM in Human Rights Law frequently progress to advanced research degrees and employment in the United Nations system, various international organisations, governments, and NGOs.
