dents decide to pursue an LL.M. To help students in their research regarding these programs, we recommend reading the article, “LL.M.: Lucky to Learn More, Life-Long Memories, or Both?” (page 29).

The LL.M. listings section (page 35) is organized alphabetically by country, then by city and then by university name with the exception of the United States and the United Kingdom where the pro- grams are listed in alphabetical order first by state (or country in the case of the UK), then city and then university name. These listings are also avail- able on the ILSA website (
www.ilsa.org) with an advanced search function to help students better locate programs of interest to them.
