Description:

Offered on the York University Keele campus, the Research LLM is a full-time research-intensive degree, ideal for students who want to delve deeply into specific areas of study and for those who are considering advancing to the PhD. Students entering without an LLB or JD may be required by the Graduate Program Director to take additional courses on the advice of their supervisors. This is often advantageous, especially where students lack sufficient background in fields of law related to their research.

Please note, the Research LLM does not qualify students to practise law in Canada. Students interested in practising law in Canada should review the licencing rules of the Law Society of the province in which they intend to practice.

Prerequisites:

Additional Admission Requirements:
  • Letter(s) of Reference
