I realise that there have been previous posts partially discussing this but I was wondering whether the Harvard LLM or Cambridge LLM is more prestigous for international law? And reasons for such a choice?

Thanks.

I dont know much about either LLM but purely from a subjective prestige point of view it has to be harvard hands down.

cambridge hands down.

1) cambridge's strength in international law is waaaay beyond harvard. just look at the course lists in international law in the two places.
2) at cambridge you actually do graduate level law courses, while at harvard you're fobbed off with JD classes ie. 1st law degree classes.

Besides, most ICJ members do hold a degree from Cambridge.

I'd choose Harvard if I were you...Cambridge is without a doubt one of the best universities in the world and certainly would be a terrific experience to study there, but Harvard's name is much stronger... my opinion only though...
