During Welcome Week, Professor Jo Braithwaite told us that the LLM would stretch and challenge us. It did just that! The LLM accords you an opportunity to grow academically, professionally and personally. It challenges your thinking and stretches your mind to limits you did not know existed. It is a fun experience too! I have loved studying in the heart of London, meeting amazing people and getting to interact with the brilliant minds of my fellow students and the LLM professors. This has definitely been an experience to remember!
The ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ Law School is well known both for its interdisciplinary approaches to legal scholarship and its contextual approach to legal study and teaching. Academics at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ believe that to understand the Law, its function, and effects, it is essential to place it within the political, social and economic context within which it is formed and operates.
The identity of Law at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ is inextricably linked to its geographical location in the heart of UK legal life. Our campus is adjacent to the Royal Courts of Justice and Lincoln's Inn, one of the four Inns of Court of which all barristers must be members. It is a short walk away from the Houses of Parliament, the offices of the largest global law firms, and regulatory bodies such as the Takeover Panel and the Financial Reporting Council.

The ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ LLM offered me exactly what I was looking for – a course that expanded my understanding of the challenges facing the world today, friendships with people from around the world, and being in the centre of the action in London. I really learned a lot not just from my professors and the classroom, but also from my peers and their experiences.
The London School of Economics is a world centre for advanced research and teaching with an outstanding reputation. Its students and academic staff are drawn from over 140 countries and around half the student population is postgraduate, making ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ one of the largest concentrations of students undertaking advanced study in Law and the social, political and economic sciences.
The ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ campus is situated in the heart of London, one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. Only a short distance from Europe's financial, legal and cultural centres, ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ stands at the crossroads of international debate, a location that is fundamental to our identity as an outward looking institution with an active involvement in UK and world affairs.
