| This course is all about how the law can assist and facilitate the resolution of international commercial disputes and thus world trade. On this course you will learn to think from an international legal perspective and will gain comparative knowledge of various approaches to international commercial dispute resolution. In addition to the core modules of international commercial litigation and international commercial arbitrations, students have a choice to select specialised international commercial dispute resolution modules, such as investment law and arbitration, Sharia Arbitration, and international construction law and dispute resolution. Moreover, the Course offers a unique opportunity to gain a mix of theoretical and practical experience of international commercial arbitration by enrolling on the Willem C Vis Moot module (40 credit) which involves simulating the dispute resolution of an international sale of goods problem by arbitration. |
