Students accepted to the Postgraduate Laws programmes start at three points of entry, namely at PGCert, PGDip or LLM. Your point of entry is determined by your entry qualifications but does not set your exit award. It is your choice to leave the programme with a PGCert, PGDip or and LLM – or all three!
You can collect all three qualifications as you wish, provided you complete within a maximum of five years.

You can decide on any specialisation you wish to take after you register. As courses may fit into more than one specialisation, it is possible to collect a different specialisation for each of your awards.

Courses usually fit into more than one specialisation, so you may be able to achieve a number of different specialist awards!
