Our LLM course is a respected academic qualification recognised throughout the world and across key legal disciplines. It focuses on our particular areas of expertise and offers a choice of nine specialist pathways or a general LLM qualification. We place emphasis on innovative and problem-solving teaching methods as well as comparative and international outlook.

European Law LLM pathway

European Law and EU law, in particular, are now more relevant than ever. At Kings you will be studying for an LLM in European Law at one of the most exciting times in EU history. Our faculty is at the cutting edge of current development while benefitting from a long-standing tradition of expertise in the field, which gives our students the most rounded view of European Law possible.

At Kings you will not only be taught in a range of areas of EU law, you will also be part of an EU law community, build around the Centre of European Law, which was established in 1974, and is the oldest centre of its kind in the United Kingdom. During your time here you will meet excellent teachers and fellow students but also European judges and Advocates General, EU officials, leading barristers, and many others with a keen interest in EU law.

Key benefits

A comprehensive and specialised pathway covering virtually all significant areas of EU law, with a long tradition of teaching excellence.

Linked to the Centre of European Law at Kings, whose past directors include Professor A G Chloros, a Judge of the Court of Justice of the European Communities and the former Advocate General of the European Court of Justice, Sir Francis Jacob.

Dedicated full-time Kings academics and distinguished professionals who contribute to the extensive module offering as part of this pathway. A commitment to delivering teaching that is a balanced mix of theoretical and practice-oriented tuition.

What you will study

Once enrolled on the General LLM at Kings, students can choose modules to follow the European Law pathway and achieve a specialist LLM in European Law. Full-time students who complete the programme in one year will normally take modules totalling 180 credits. To graduate with a European Law LLM at least 120 credits must be taken within the pathway. This can be optional modules alone or a combination of optional modules and a writing project, providing its content is relevant to the pathway.   

Course essentials:

Our LLM course is designed for both recent law graduates and established professionals. It will allow you to deepen and broaden your knowledge of law as an academic subject and will help your professional development by enhancing your problem – solving skills in a transnational context. It is designed to maximise your intellectual potential, as well as keeping you grounded by drawing on the real world experiences of staff and other practitioners. You will also benefit from our vibrant intellectual community, student societies and social events, as well as our links with prestigious international law schools.
