Master in Llm International Business Law Practice

The tuition fee is 37,195 USD per year.

At the heart of this programme is the unique opportunity to step into the role of a legal practitioner within the Baroness Hale Legal Clinic. Unlike traditional LLM programmes that focus solely on theory, this course places you in a small-group student law firm, where you will provide supervised advice to real clients on genuine commercial and business law issues. This "student law firm" model is central to the York experience, bridging the gap between academic study and professional practice.

You will explore how legal structures support business relationships and manage commercial risk, gaining a sophisticated understanding of corporate finance, intellectual property, and international trade. The pedagogy is built upon problem-based learning, which mirrors the complexities of the modern global workplace by presenting you with messy, real-world scenarios rather than simplified textbook cases. Whether you are drafting contracts or navigating international arbitration, the curriculum is designed to sharpen your research, analytical, and professional skills while fostering deep commercial awareness.

A Practical, Practitioner-Led Approach

Taught by a faculty of experienced legal practitioners and leading academics, the programme ensures that your learning remains at the cutting edge of professional standards. By the time you reach the capstone Business Law Clinic module in the summer, you will have developed the confidence and expertise to advise clients effectively, making this an ideal choice for those looking to excel in international business, consultancy, or the legal profession.
