The School delivers diverse postgraduate courses that transcend traditional legal education, adopting an interdisciplinary socio-legal approach with strong European and international perspectives. Learners can select from four distinct pathways (detailed below): Our program includes a comprehensive LLM option along with specialized tracks in European Business Law, International Human Rights Law, and Public Law. We encourage applications from students across Ireland, Europe, and worldwide who seek to expand their legal knowledge within wider societal, political, and international frameworks.
For admission to the LLM programme, successful applicants will have:
Normally have achieved a Second Class Honours Grade One (H2.1) in a primary degree (level 8) in law or an interdisciplinary degree which includes law as a significant component.
Applicants who have not achieved a H2.1 may apply but applications will be assessed on a competitive basis.
If an applicant has not yet completed their degree, then a conditional offer may be made on the basis of most recent grades and pending the achievement of no less than a H2.2 degree.
Applicants with appropriate combinations of professional qualifications and experience may also be considered. This includes discipline-specific knowledge and know-how; transferable skills; basic research competency; personal effectiveness.
