Since 1951, our Master of Laws (LLM) program has offered a comprehensive and versatile curriculum. Designed to meet your professional growth needs, it covers specialized areas including health law, environmental law, human rights, business law, technology law, taxation, and more. The LLM program provides two distinct pathways: one combining a thesis with three courses, and another consisting of six courses, each demanding significant research work.

Both program options offer flexible scheduling, available either full-time (typically completed in one year) or part-time (usually spanning two or more years).
