The academic management of the LLM is provided jointly by the Departments of Law of Queen Mary and University College London, two of the University of London’s colleges.
Queen Mary
Queen Mary is one of the largest Colleges of the University of London, with a rich and diverse heritage. The College began life in 1887 as the People’s Palace, a philanthropic endeavour to provide East Londoners with education and social activities. The College’s Law department has a 5* rating, the highest possible rating in the UK.
University College London (UCL)
Founded in 1826, UCL was the first university institution in England to admit students of any race, class or religion, and the first to admit women on equal terms with men. UCL was also the first to offer degrees in English literature, modern European languages and geography, and pioneered the university-based teaching of law, architecture and medicine. Described by The Times newspaper as “an intellectual heavyweight by any standard”, UCL has built an outstanding reputation for the quality of its teaching and research. There are currently 21 Nobel prizewinners amongst UCL’s alumni and former staff.
