Course Overview

Pursue your ambitions in social sciences with the LLM Health Law at Nottingham Trent University. Based in Nottingham, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure.

Dive deep into fundamental principles like consent to treatment and medical ethics, while also exploring specialised areas of health law such as the regulation of healthcare quality, mental health law, and employment and health law. A minimum ielts score of 6.5 is required for admission.
