With the increasing influence of European law in this area, employment law has become more complex and has had to respond to rapid social and political change. The LLM Employment Law is a two-year, part-time taught Master of Laws programme offering a quality learning and teaching experience that will allow you to develop, update and deepen your understanding of these trends. The programme is delivered through a blend of online distance learning, hard-copy materials and five weekend face-to-face residential sessions held in the Guildford area near the University campus. During these residential weekends, tuition is provided by academics and practitioners offering a practical, hands-on approach to the subject. You will also have an opportunity to meet and engage with teaching staff and fellow students on some of the key issues of each module. We provide an academically rigorous taught programme leading to a prestigious postgraduate qualification in employment law. The programme offers in-depth study of individual and collective employment law, together with discrimination law, enabling critical analysis of key principles, policies, concepts and doctrines in employment law. This programme will be attractive to employment lawyers, HR professionals, academics and others working in cognate areas. We offer a delivery mode suitable to the needs of those in full-time employment. The LLM builds upon existing teaching and research expertise in the School of Law. Compulsory modules ?
