University of Limerick

Course Description

• ​The LLM program is designed to enhance students' legal skills and enrich their knowledge of a variety of legal subjects across a broad spectrum from criminal law, to competition law, property and human rights law
  
• The program is ideal for those looking for an advanced legal education but who do not wish to focus on a single branch of law
• The School of Law has a long tradition of committing itself to developing the transferrable skills of students. Initiatives in this regard (mooting, project work with community partners etc.) promote “big picture” holistic thinking, and can explicitly enhance student soft skills such as problem solving, decision-making, communication, teamwork, planning, critical thinking and human relations skills
• Graduates of this program, national and international, have ended up as partners in major law firms, as partners in major accounting firms, at the Bar, in senior roles in government departments, NGOs, at the EU, in academia, and private industry
• At the core of this degree’s success is its accommodation, not only of a diverse suite of highly innovative, research-led law modules, but also its incorporation of a unique practice-orientated, employer-led “Professional Development” module
