Dear All,

Think this is the correct place to post my question.

I'm based in South East Asia, with a 2:1 Bsc in Management from University College Dublin (Distance Learning) and am interested to complement this with a sound education in law. Purpose is not to practise Law, only for improving employability and self betterment.

I'm contemplating between reading a LLM from University of Edinburgh or University of London (External Programmes) via distance learning.

Hope forumers can post your views on which LLM is more reputable and worth doing, especially for this part of the world. Any views are appreciated, many thanks !

Hi All,

I can't find, is there no Common Law specialism available from Edinburgh ? thanks.

Hi Trey,

If you are looking to further your education by earning a law degree, the next step may be to earn an LL.B or a J.D. from a law school. LL.M. programs are typically designed for students who have already earned a first degree in law and are looking to expand their knowledge in a specific area of law. However, the 2 programs you mentioned do not require a first degree in law which you might find helpful if you have not yet earned a degree in law.

In case you need additional information on the difference between an LL.M and a J.D. or LL.B here is an article I found helpful: http://onlinelaw.wustl.edu/jd-vs-ll-m-program-what-is-the-difference/
