This LLM (Master of Maritime Law) programme, which is being offered in Greece, is designed to benefit experienced professionals and executives involved in the shipping markets and sectors, and those companies which provide services to the shipping industries. Officials working in the maritime and international trade sector will also benefit from the highly commercial approach taken in the delivery of the programme.
The LLM will give top shipping professionals an invaluable exposure to international maritime and trade law, whilst legally qualified professionals will also benefit from the specialist nature of the programme. Non legal professionals involved in the maritime and maritime services sector will gain deep insights into the practical workings of maritime and trade law.
The programme is delivered in block format by our own UK-based faculty, each module on the course is taught in the form of three teaching blocks scheduled on Fridays and Saturdays.
The programme welcomes applicants who have a good degree in any related discipline and/or relevant work experience, including ambitious and highly motivated recent graduates. A specialist qualification in international maritime law will undoubtedly enhance career prospects.
Our group of students consists of either top-quality Law graduates or graduates of other disciplines who have relevant work experience of more than two years. We have students from Greece and from other countries including Switzerland, Italy, Norway, France and the United Kingdom.
We are interested in receiving applications from individuals with a good honours undergraduate degree in law, business, maritime studies, or a related field from an internationally recognized institution. Applicants without formal undergraduate education but with significant and relevant work experience and/or training are very welcome to apply.
