Study

UEA's LLM Master of Laws is available for those who wish to pursue a programme of study specifically tailored to their individual interests.

The programme places emphasis on small group and interactive teaching, giving students supportive access to the Law School's dedicated team of specialists drawn from both academia and practice.
