Hi fellows,
I am a biomedical researcher in Canada interested in Medical Law LLM via distance. The options I have considered are Edinburgh, UoL external, De Montfort.
In terms of curriculum the three looks similar.
Can students currently enrolled with these three schools guide me with choosing a program. I am interested in desertation so that rules out UoL I believe.
I want a school that has a repulation in medical law research and I know Edinburgh has it. I know nothing and could find very little about De Montfort. Is De Montfort a reputed law school? Is the education from this school valued similar to UoL or Edingburgh?
As a reseacher with a family it has been difficult to save a lot for education therefore I am trying to find the right fit for me. I would appreciate any input from you guys. Thanks in advance.
My expectations :
1) School with good teaching reputation
2) Should be sound in Medical Law education
3) Should have research faculty in Medical Law
4) I am interested to do research and be a social exponent on medical ethics in the community I live. I need continued support from the faculty to meet my goal.

I think in the Medical Law LLM field you won't find a more reputable uni than Edinburgh or UofL. De Montfort, though a decent school, is not on the same level as far as stature.
The Edinburgh faculty is excellent, with Graeme Laurie at the helm. He has done some cutting-edge research and is a genuinely nice and helpful person. He has taken great pains to create a distance programme that is of outstanding quality and very interactive with the students via online forums and ready availability to answer questions. I haven't done that particular degree but I have helped out with projects in the research centre so have seen first hand how committed the staff is to the LLM Medical law distance programme. I hope this comment helps in some way.

@EDIpostgrad : Much appreciate your comments. I value what you said. I would like to get more people to share their views so that I can get a better feel before I enrol in one of these programs. The deadline is approaching - Sept - I guess. EDIpostgrad, could you let me know what is your area of study at Edin? Just curious.
