Course descriptionCourse description
The programme is a self-contained one-year training in legal techniques at postgraduate level. It has two major features which structure its design and content. Firstly, it is designed to accommodate both those who wish to specialise in international business law in the EC context (particularly the UK) and those whose interests are focused on the international business economy beyond the EC. Secondly, the content of many of the optional course units offered are designed to complement each other.
