Introduction
Programme description This unique and internationally focused LLM programme explores how the law responds to, regulates, and promotes new and emerging technologies. Innovative technologies and convergence in technologies are causing unprecedented societal change. New legal issues are arising, and new regulatory responses emerging. The law can help – or hinder – society’s ability to reap the optimal rewards from technological development. Across the programme, you will study different modes of regulation – the law, the markets, the technology itself – and critically analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each. The potential of technology to support legal and judicial processes is also examined. This LLM will enable you to develop an advanced knowledge of domains where law engages with technology, awareness of the problems in the area and understanding of the differing approaches to their solution. Programme structure To be awarded LLM Innovation, Technology & the Law you must successfully complete six courses, five of which must be compulsory courses, and a 10,000-word dissertation during your chosen duration of the study. Our broad range of courses covers the areas of information technology law, intellectual property law, and medical law. During your studies, you may also have the opportunity to study one course from our range of commercial law courses. Please note the available choice of courses in any given year may change. Learning outcomes By the end of your studies, you should have acquired a high level of knowledge in the field of law and technology, a sophisticated awareness of the problems in the area and of the differing approaches to their solution. Career opportunities Graduates of our online distance learning programmes progress to a range of careers in Law and related legal fields, including work in local and international firms, government legal departments, other public institutions, international organizations and in academia. The programmes are also an ideal platform for advanced research. Entry requirements A UK 2:1 honors degree, or its international equivalent, in law. We may also consider a UK 2:1 honors degree, or its international equivalent, in a social science subject. English language requirements All applicants must have one of the following qualifications as evidence of their English language ability: an undergraduate or masters degree, that was taught and assessed in English in a majority English speaking country as defined by UK Visas and Immigration IELTS: total 7.0 (at least 6.5 in each module) TOEFL-iBT: total 100 (at least 23 in each module) PTE(A): total 67 (at least 61 in each of the "Communicative Skills" sections) CAE and CPE: total 185 (at least 176 in each module) Trinity ISE: ISE III with a pass in all four components Degrees taught and assessed in English must be no more than three years old at the beginning of your degree programme. Language tests must be no more than two years old at the beginning of your degree programme. Edinburgh Law School English Language Test Edinburgh Law School, in conjunction with the University’s English Language Education department, has developed an alternative English language test for applicants to our online distance learning postgraduate programmes in law for entry in the 2017/18 academic year. The test is an alternative to the English language tests currently accepted by the University, such as IELTS, TOEFL-iBT, PTE(A), CAE and CPE. Please note that this test can only be used to satisfy the English language requirements for entry into a postgraduate programme in law by online distance learning at Edinburgh Law School, the University of Edinburgh. Application deadlines Programme start date: 14 January 2019 Application deadline: 13 November 2018 We strongly recommend you submit your completed application as early as possible, particularly if you are also applying for funding or will require a visa. We may consider late applications if we have places available. We monitor application numbers carefully to ensure we are able to accommodate all those who receive offers. It may, therefore, be necessary to close a programme earlier than the published deadlines. If this is the case we will place a four-week warning notice. How to apply You must submit a reference with your application.
