Hello everyone - looking for a bit of advice.
I've just graduated from LSE with a first, and I am looking at masters courses. Ideally, I would like to work as legal counsel for an international organisation, and hence I am looking at institutions that specialise in Public International Law.
So I've got down to the Graduate Institute in Geneva, with their MIS in International Law, and Cambridge's LLM in International Law.
A few factors that I've been putting weight on - I'm British and would quite like to live abroad for a bit. Further, I don't talk any other languages fluently, so living in Geneva may be useful to that end. But what does everyone else think?

an aspect to be considered when choosing between the two is also that the HEI program takes 2 years. this might be useful for establishing a more concrete and wide-ranging network with people working in the field you're interested in.
I'm also eager to hear from others.. in terms of reputation, can anyone say a word on that ? how highly regarded is the graduate institute, staff and student body ? ...
