The University of Dundee LLM in International Dispute Resolution is a unique distance learning programme taught by a team of internationally-recognised academics and practitioner-trainers. The LLM and its associate programmes, the Diploma in International Dispute Resolution and the Certificate in International Dispute Resolution, have been awarded Recognised Course Provider status from two professional bodies ? the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb) and Mediation Scotland LLP. This external approval provides significant advantages to those who successfully complete the relevant modules in International Commercial Arbitration, Negotiation and Mediation. The International Dispute Resolution programmes are available via two pathways: a fully distance learning pathway (Pathway 1) [PDF] a combination of distance learning modules complemented by a compulsory residential element focussed on practical Negotiation and Mediation skills (Pathway 2) [PDF] The programme will appeal to LLB qualified professionals who seek to up-skill, as well as practitioners who want to diversify. It will also appeal to graduates with an LLB or equivalent degree, who wish to gain a detailed understanding of International and European (primarily Commercial) policies and rules of importance to the settlement of disputes in international business, legal or governmental settings. It is possible to complete the LLM degree in 15-18 months (depending on choice of modules) though there is sufficient flexibility to extend the study period for up to 5 years. For those who need further flexibility in qualifications gained there are exit options to complete with either the Certificate or the Diploma in International Dispute Resolution. There are also opportunities to enrol on individual modules for CPD.
