employability and enhancing the preparation of our students to deliver client value within the traditional ethical values of the sector and the pre-eminence of the rule of law.”


The University of Law is focused on building its reputation worldwide and has formed strategic collaborations with global law schools: the Singapore Institute of Legal Education, IE Law School in Madrid and Beijing’s Renmin University of China Law School. It has a long-standing relationship with the International Bar Association, with which it jointly runs its successful LL.M in International Legal Practice.


International Bar Association and College of Law Announce LL.M Scholarships Scholarships for qualified lawyers and law graduates wishing to boost their knowledge of global legal practice by studying for a Masters of Law LL.M degree have been announced.


For the second year the International Bar Association (IBA) and The College of Law are offering four £2,500 awards towards the fees for their full- time LL.M in International Legal Practice, which runs at the College’s London Moorgate and Manchester centres from September 2013.


This follows the College’s recent announcement of scholarships and awards for the 2013 Graduate Diploma in Law, LL.M Legal Practice Course and Bar Professional Training Course


postgraduate programmes, as well as for its undergraduate LL.B law degree.


To apply students must have accepted a place on the September 2013 full-time London or Manchester LL.M programme by July 19, 2013.


They need to submit an essay, short video or other form of digital presentation also by July 19 on the following question: ‘In Shakespeare’s Henry VI (part two) Dick the Butcher demands: “the first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers”. Consider whether this is the public’s attitude of lawyers today and whether that perception is likely to change over the next ten years?’ The LL.M in International Legal Practice was launched by the College and IBA in 2007 and was designed with contributions from leading global law firms, including Allen & Overy, DLA Piper and Baker & McKenzie.


It provides an internationally recognised practice-focused professional qualification designed to build corporate and cross-border legal knowledge and can be studied either part- time online with one-to-one tutor supervision or full-time in London and Manchester. Since the LL.M’s launch in 2007 lawyers from nearly 35 jurisdictions have registered for a total of around 1,700 LL.M modules.


Tim Hughes, Deputy Executive Director of the IBA, said: “The practical advantages of this LL.M, in being tutored on how to conduct real cross-border transactions, will broaden the


skills of any aspiring young lawyer, and we are delighted to once again be able to broaden access to it through offering these scholarships.”


The IBA is the world’s leading organisation of international legal practitioners, bar associations and law societies while The College of Law, which has eight centres across the UK, is Europe’s largest provider of legal professional education.
