The Global Law programme at Edinburgh is designed to prepare you for a range of careers in a rapidly changing professional environment.

It will provide you with the legal skills, substantive knowledge, and global outlook to work across borders and to bring a uniquely legal perspective to solving global challenges.

The LLB Global Law does not provide you with a qualification to practice law. Instead, the degree will provide you with skills to adapt, innovate and succeed in a globally oriented legal career.

You may move from country to country or work with local, national and regional institutions, organisations, or businesses with a global perspective. You may work with clients who need to be advised on cross-jurisdictional matters or with supranational or international organisations.
