About Master of Laws - Law, Environment and Sustainability
The international community faces considerable challenges in achieving sustainability relating to all aspects of the environment and development. These goals include the need to achieve social justice and economic resilience, and as such pose complex legal and policy questions.
Law plays an integral role in these processes as its development affects and influences the decision-making of governments and businesses, and impacts directly upon communities and the environments in which they live.
Our LLM Law, Environment and Sustainability course offers the opportunity to study across a wide range of modules in the areas of environmental law, development law, international law, corporate and commercial law, human rights, corporate responsibility, trade and investment law to enable students to become technically capable in these areas and to enhance your analytical, communication and advocacy skills needed to operate effectively within these spheres.
Students will learn about the legal and non-mandatory obligations that relate to different national and international actors, and the tensions that exist within different legal systems and frameworks of law that sometimes represent competing environmental, political, economic, social and developmental priorities.
Throughout the degree students will have the opportunity to study key areas, including but not limited to:
- International Environmental Law and Sustainability
- Human Rights, Development and the Environment
- Trade, Investment, Environment and Human Rights
- Corporate Responsibility and Business Law
- International Law of the Sea
- Business and Human Rights
- Public International Law
The degree will develop students intellectual and critical faculties, encourage them to think independently and teach them to present rational, coherent, and accurate arguments orally and in writing. It will provide students with an excellent foundation for a wide range of careers.
