| The LLM program at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law offers a flexible and rigorous academic program for Canadian and international law graduates seeking opportunities for advanced study and research. LLM students have gone on to pursue further graduate legal education (through a doctoral program), entered directly into university teaching positions, or resumed practice with private firms, government agencies and non-governmental organizations. Each year, students focus on a diverse range of areas like constitutional law, international human rights, law & economics, and legal theory. The LLM program can be undertaken with a strong emphasis on a thesis (long or short, in combination with some coursework), or coursework-only (with a course-based writing requirement). |
