Hello!
I'm Canadian and have been accepted to the LL.M. program at UCL and the LL.M. in Advanced Public International Law at Leiden University. I'm leaning toward Leiden (just a gut feeling), but am unsure!! I've accepted at both schools until I've made up my mind. (I'm also considering the LL.M. in International Humanitarian and Human Rights Law at ADH Geneva, though that seems to be less attractive than the other two.)
Does anyone know which school is going to be better for international public law, human rights, and international organization work? I'm not entirely sure what I want to do with the degree, but I am trying to decide based on which school is likely to have int'l recognition (which will enable me to work abroad and come home to Canada), high post-degree employment prospects, practical applicability, and also, of course, an engaging social aspect.
Any suggestions/advice is GREATLY appreciated, since there are not many school rankings/reviews/critiques that compare UK schools with Continental European ones.
Thanks in advance!!
