LLM Liverpool university

The International Business Law LL.M is an advanced programme of study delivered in partnership with the Royal University for Women, Kingdom of Bahrain. The LL.M will provide learners with an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the global economy and the interconnected yet distinct legal subjects that underpin international business.

At the core of the programme is the required module ‘International Business Law’. This module will serve as an introduction to crucial principles that underpin international business law as a discipline such as personal property, agency, company formation, and corporate legal liability. It will also introduce students to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and their relevance to international business, in particular through the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact as well as enabling students to think critically around the way in which legal and regulatory requirements around unethical conduct shape international business. This module, therefore, serves to embed important threshold knowledge that will support and frame the LL.M Programme in general and aligns with the Bahrain Economic Vision 2030.

Covering a wide range of legal areas relevant to international business law, the programme will offer learners optional modules enabling them to gain depth and breadth of knowledge across different areas including international economic law, the law and regulation of corporates, and the law governing the knowledge economy, creativity, and technology.
