We have offered a LLM in Computer & Communications Law by Distance Learning here at the Centre for Commercial Law Studies at Queen Mary University of London since 2003.

The course looks at all legal issues arising from information and communications technologies, and includes modules such as regulation of telecommunications, copyright, digital rights management, trademarks & domain names, protection of computer software, cybercrime, information security, outsourcing, e-commerce law, internet content regulation, jurisidictional issues in e-commerce, online dispute resolution, online media regulation, privacy & data protection etc etc. The choice is yours!

The course is entirely taught at a distance (apart from a voluntary weekend seminar). We use an online platform to disseminate materials and structure the course, but more importantly to make it interactive through the use of blogs and chats. So students have to participate in discussions and receive feedback. The course content is broken into small, manageable modules which last 16 weeks- our flexible approach has meant that many practising lawyers are taking and enjoying the course part-time.

The spread of students is really global- which makes the discussions really interesting as students bring in different backgrounds and experiences.
