LLM Information, Technology and Intellectual Property Law (Part time)

University of East Anglia UEA

Unlock your future with our cutting-edge part-time Information Technology and Intellectual Property Law course. On this dynamic programme, you will dive into two of the most pivotal legal questions of our time: the fate of law in the information age and the management and exploitation of creativity, reputation, and innovation in the digital era. You will engage in vital debates and develop a profound understanding of these critical issues.

You will study alongside our team of world-class scholars exploring everything from Intellectual Property enforcement to the rights and risks in the Information Age. We emphasise choice so you can tailor your studies to your career ambitions, and we prioritise small-group teaching, ensuring low class sizes.

Here at UEA, you will join a vibrant, dynamic community of students from diverse backgrounds. We offer placement opportunities and chances to build your CV through extra-curricular activities and the Law School’s unique employability programme. You could benefit from our alumni-mentoring scheme and attend our many career events where you can network with law firms, barrister chambers and alumni. You could also make a difference in the local community by working for the public good (pro bono). In less than five years, our students have recovered more than seven million pounds for welfare benefits claimants wrongly denied payments. Four times we have won the national LawWorks Best Partnership in Pro Bono award.

You can also have fun by joining in Law Society activities. As well as social events, these include mooting contests where a point of law is debated in a simulated court hearing. Finals are judged by actual judges or barristers. The Law Society also holds negotiation, client interviewing, mediation and legal triathlon competitions, the finals of which are hosted by law firms. In 2016, UEA won LawCareers.Net award for ‘Best Pro Bono’ activities and the 2019 award as the best law society for Commercial Awareness.
