LLM Law and Social Justice

at University of Northampton

The LLM in Law and Social Justice is designed to empower students by expanding their understanding of contemporary social justice issues within both national and international contexts. Through a comprehensive examination of relevant legal frameworks, students will gain insight into how legal systems address—and sometimes perpetuate—issues of inequality, discrimination, and social inequity. This programme goes beyond a theoretical approach, encouraging students to engage in critical analyses of diverse strategies and solutions to these pressing issues. By studying real-world problems and examining various legal and policy responses, students will cultivate a robust understanding of how law can be a tool for social change.
