Minor Thesis F/T LLM (LAWS70015)

The minor thesis allows students to develop highly specialised expertise in a selected area of law, carrying out independent research to produce a substantial thesis that makes a distinctive contribution to knowledge and the literature in the relevant legal field. Students will develop an advanced understanding of research methods and principles, will be supervised by one of the Law School’s leading academics in their chosen field of research and, at the completion of the minor thesis, will have the satisfaction of having produced a piece or pieces of legal writing worthy of publication in a learned legal journal.

Completion of the minor thesis demonstrates a critical application of specialist knowledge and should make an independent contribution to existing scholarship in the area of research.
