Study Details: LLM/PG Dip 1 year full-time, 2 years part-time (September start); 15 months full-time, 28 months part-time (January start)
The Kent LLM (and associated Diploma programme) allows you to broaden and deepen your knowledge and understanding of law by specialising in one or more different areas.
This pathway is specifically concerned with how law operates in practice. It will provide students with theoretical and interdisciplinary perspectives on law and society and encourage students to question how the law facilitates (or undermines) social justice at the local, national and international level.
It enables you to select from a range of modules offered by Kent Law School and the School of Social Policy, Sociology, and Social Research (SSPSSR) at the University of Kent, giving you the opportunity to critically analyse the role of law in contemporary global society, to study and understand key issues in legal and social policy, and to develop research and data analysis skills used in contemporary socio-legal research. It is suited to anyone who is interested in a career in a field which requires a sophisticated understanding of the operation of law in society, with skills in legal and social research, including students from non-legal backgrounds who would like to develop their research skills. It also provides an excellent foundation for students interested in progressing to PhD study.
We require a first class or upper second class honours degree in law or a relevant subject, or an equivalent international degree and we also welcome applications based on a lower second class honours degree which we will consider on a case-by-case basis alongside your relevant professional experience and other qualifications.
