Learning outcomes

On successful completion of the programme, students will have:

  • The ability to analyse academic issues of law at postgraduate level and to be able to develop a discursive critical analysis of such issues
  • The ability to develop critical discussion of a postgraduate nature that is sound and valid; i.e. so that it is methodologically “self-aware”
  • A capacity for independent research that is expected of postgraduate students

Prerequisites

  • Postgraduate Diploma in International Maritime Law from the World Maritime University, London Metropolitan University or other recognised University or
  • A first degree in law (or a degree with substantial law content) and have  substantial related work experience

Competence in English: Where English is a second language you will be required to show evidence of ability by an internationally acceptable examination in English, or that a prior degree has been studied in English. Students who do not have a suitable test of English may be admitted on a probationary basis and allowed to proceed if their first piece of assessed work demonstrates that their language skills are sufficient.
