Course summary

The increased potential for international elements to any legal issue – from trade and business, to crime, to migration, to information technology, to privacy – has meant that legal graduates need to possess skills that transcend one national jurisdiction. The Postgraduate Diploma in Global Legal Studies imparts just those skills. By taking the PG Dip in Global Legal Studies, students will be exposed to a range of legal issues that extend across jurisdictions, and will gain critical insights from a variety of other disciplines, including politics, psychology, economics, and sociology.
