Overview
Studying law at Kent means learning to ask the difficult questions. Our LLM Law course challenges you to think differently about legal systems – not just how they work, but what they mean for people, communities and the world. You’ll explore how the law influences and responds to challenges expressed in the UN Sustainable Development Goals, such as inequality, climate change, health insecurity and human rights violations. At the heart of this course is a critical approach: you’ll examine legal rules and institutions in context, and question who they serve, how they shape society, and how they might be reformed. Whether your interest is in commercial law, environmental law, public international law, human rights, health or criminal justice, this course gives you the tools to think deeply and write persuasively about the most pressing legal issues of our time. You’ll learn from expert researchers and become part of a community that values justice, curiosity and debate. With the flexibility to specialise and the space to grow, you’ll graduate with the confidence and knowledge to shape law and policy on a local and global scale. You can develop in-depth expertise by studying one or two specialised subject pathways or study for a general Kent LLM with no specialist pathway. Specialist pathways include:
