The Master of Laws equips law graduates with focused expertise in specific legal domains, catering to both early-career and mid-career legal professionals working in specialized policy or operational roles, as well as those aiming to enter specialized fields.
Students will explore key concepts including jurisdiction, law enforcement, regulatory structures, and legal frameworks while developing the ability to assess the legal, political, and operational influences shaping law and policy. The program also challenges participants to identify and address deficiencies in existing legal and policy systems. A capstone research project allows students to apply their acquired knowledge to pressing legal or policy challenges.
The curriculum offers concentrated study in particular legal and policy specialties, with the inaugural specialization focusing on International Law and Policy concerning global maritime affairs (Maritime Law).
