It is taught in a modular format, with courses taking place at LSE during three two-week sessions. The programme starts in September with the first two-week teaching session. The remaining teaching sessions take place in January and April. In betwen teaching sessions you will be required to complete various assessments. After the teaching blocks you complete a dissertation on a topic of your choice.
